Netflix has lost 1 million viewers, and they are still delighted
The company has now about 220.7 million viewers globally after a massive drop in the last two quarters. It’s no doubt that the streamer had a challenging time, but they hope to bounce back in the third quarter. Because Netflix has seen a growth of 9% in revenues after the release of new seasons and shows. Also, co-chief executive Reed Hastings stated that the results were less harmful than expected. However, he added: “it’s tough losing one million subscribers and calling it a success.”
Meanwhile, the letter to shareholders has an optimistic approach to the future. The company said they would not change the binge-watching legacy as it’s a part of the belief in creating control-free content was viewers. Instead, they will continue to make efforts by changing their subscription plans and taking the support of advertisements. And the company will feature a lower-priced ad tier in partnership with Microsoft in 2023.
Here’s what the Twitterati have to say about this
People are constantly posting about this huge loss that Netflix faced on social media.
Another user stated that the company had not raised the subscription price for so long. So why is it still losing subscribers?
