I felt the same way about Netflix when it first started. Now, there are dozens of competitors with different catalogues, making piracy enticing for people once again.
Speaking as a consumer, that in itself doesn't make it enticing. If there was very little worthwhile content on 1-2 platforms, maybe, but since I'm not the "binging" type who absolutely needs to see every hyped show right now, I can't be arsed and find there's already enough to see.
Between Netflix and Prime, you're not spending that much and you sure as hell don't need a dozen subscriptions to watch every good show.
I think there are still enough people who remember 2010-era Starz on Netflix (and with the massive DVD catalogue for the rest). Everything, on every single service, has been downhill since then.
I'm the same as you. I subscribe to Netflix so long as there's something I'm watching, then stop. Then I might subscribe to something else. People that complain about having to pay for all services are just power users, and I think it's fair that I don't pay as much as them.
