Odd timing as my wife just asked about cancelling Netflix. We are not currently watching anything they have.
I canceled after the password sharing crackdown. I realized how little i use it anymore, definitely not worth $20 a month.
Yay. Sounds like I’ll have one or two new items to add to the already long list of reasons to cancel:
-If any of my fees will be going to pay for sporting event streaming licenses. -If it’s not easy to block this content in the already bad browse and search views.
I don’t mind if they carry documentaries about truly notable sporting events or participants but having live sporting events on that platform is just dumb.
Is golf even a sport? Looks like exercise at best to me, and that’s only if you’re playing without a cart.
So, it’s golf. They’re planning to have a tournament featuring players from their reality golf shows (which I didn’t even know existed until this moment). I honestly don’t know if golf is easier or harder to show live than other sports.
Seems more like it’s going to be celebrity pro-am golf, with the celeb amateurs being from other sports that Netflix has produced documentaries about — which would be tennis (Breaking Point), Formula One (Drive to Survive), maybe cycling (Tour de France: Unchained)?
