This article is completely inane. What is the value of Amazon and of Netflix?

They are fun! Basically the annoyance of going to work is grater that the entertainment of Netflix. The article also says 2/3 would take a small pay cut to work from home!

The last 5-6 times I tried to use Netflix I just ended up scrolling the catalog and abandoning when I couldn't find something I want to watch. I cancelled Netflix. You should not generalize based in your opinion.

I did mean to generalize because I’m betting the majority of people do enjoy Netflix or similar platforms. However I guess some people didn’t quite get that when I said “they are fun!” I meant “they are fun for most people” so I apologize! (I would edit the comment to be more specific but I can’t anymore!)
