Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) Users Sharing Account Passwords, Details With Others

In fact, according to a recent study from Parks Associates, Netflix could lose an estimated $500 million in 2015 because of global account credential-sharing. Moreover, “The Cost of Piracy” report discovered that six percent of U.S. households utilize a streaming service unregistered by any household member. What’s troubling is that it’s mostly young people taking part in this practice.

Netflix, which has about 65 million international users and has been growing thanks to overseas adoption, does offer multiple account types:

  • Basic: $8 per month; number of screens to watch on is just one.
  • Standard: $9 per month; number of screens to watch on is two.
  • Premium: $12 per month; number of screens to watch on is four.
