Well said. I would've rather seen Netflix continue their revenue growth by expanding into other verticals, rather than by continuously increasing their monthly price, which in my opinion is a very uninspired/lazy way of increasing revenue.

If anything, one of the best forms of competitive market capitalism is when a company that's successful in one sector, invests in entering a new one, thereby adding competition to whatever that new sector is. Shareholders get more growth out of the company, consumers in that sector get more competition for their $, win-win.
