Sharing Netflix Passwords Now A US Federal Crime

A study last year by research firm Parks Associates suggested SVOD services would stand to lose upwards of $500 million in revenue in 2015 from the practice of sharing passwords.

However other research suggests password sharing of SVOD is not at epidemic levels. A little over 4% of subscribers said they share their password outside their family circle, while 42% say they share it with family members.

From the article "Sharing Netflix Passwords Now A US Federal Crime" by David Knox.
