“Additional Members” is a new Netflix concept that the streaming service provider has been testing in Canada, New Zealand, Portugal and Spain since February this year.
The company believes that Netflix access is intended for a household. Anyone who is not part of the household is an “additional member”.
Many Netflix users in Canada were outraged by the move against account sharing and canceled their subscriptions. After a transition phase, however, the situation stabilized and developed positively in terms of sales and number of subscribers, commented Netflix Co-CEO Gregory Peters.
Now the Canadian experiment should serve as a model for Netflix offers worldwide. For many users, this means higher Netflix costs.
