This is pure bullshit. If Netflix won't commit to it's part of the deal (FULL HD and 4K) then why should I commit to my part (13.99 monthly)? You cannot decide by yourself to lower the quality of your services and keep the price same. Sometimes I wish I had enough money and time to seek "legal retribution" from these type of situations. I would love for this case to make it to the European Court in Strasbourg. "The v…

#532Earlier quoted context omitted.
I pay $30 for 250/100 and i live 20 minutes outside a town if 120k in a small community of 25 houses, about 7 km from the nearest store of any kind. Is that competitive? I have no idea. I could however chose from around 10 ISPs that all have to compete in the network, which I understand is quite rare on the other side of the pond.
Where are you? There are many different deals across Europe; many aren't as good as what you have.

#534Is this for the entirety of Europe? Because I imagine we're not having any issues with this in Finland.
No issues in the Netherlands either, we have a lot of cable (250 or 500mbit) and fiber (similar speeds) connections so I guess they're used to this amount of traffic. I guess this kind of thing is more for rural DSL lines in other countries? Or maybe central London :-), they still have a lot of homes only connected by ancient copper telephone cables.

Don't you think it's okay for us to be slightly understanding and forgiving that there are some individuals and companies that aren't simply capable of flawlessly and immediately adjusting to major changes in their realities at the drop of a hat? I'm sure their usage is through the roof, and they probably didn't predict a pandemic with quarantines into their infrastructure improvements modeled around predictable usag…
Will Netflix be understanding and forgiving if pandemic would cut our income, so we wouldn't be capable of paying for subscription and started pirating their originals?

#536Paying isn't enough to get what you paid for, so... https://github.com/SickChill/SickChill - automatically download TV episodes (about Linux) https://github.com/CouchPotato/CouchPotatoServer - automatically download Movies (about Linux) https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent - torrent client for downloading your Linux tv/movies...
Just my 2 cents: I tried using Couchpotato for a while and it was one of the worst pieces of software I have ever tried to use. Confusing UX/UI, I never could understand how and when it was actually searching for movies etc. I switched to radarr[1] and I never looked back. Although I hate having mono installed in my server, at least I can manually perform searches to check if it works until I was satisfied that the "…
Sonarr 3 isn't technically stable, but I've been running it for more than a year now and didn't have any problems worth mentioning.
Radarr, Lidarr and some others are all built off of Sonarr.

People are dying, you can handle a slightly worse video quality.
I'm fine with not going to the gym and I'm fine with a lower Netflix quality. But you shouldn't charge me for a service that you're simply not providing anymore.
Netflix should downgrade everyone's plan automatically or just charge them less.
