The Netflix one screwed me... I go to hospital 3 times a week for 5 hours of dialysis. But Netflix viewed that as a second household and wanted me to pay for a second account to use my own account in 2 locations
Now I pay for zero accounts and still get any Netflix shows I want through alternative methods
Wait...How does Netflix treat it if someone travels for a week? I thought you only had to "check-in" at the "home" location every 30 days or something like that.
I spent seasons abroad and netflix started to delete my downloads
That's what they changed it to after I had already left... At first they only gave you 2 weeks at other locations for the year
Whaaat? 2 weeks per year? It wouldn't have affected me, but how would traveling customers keep watching legitimately?
