Distinction being “number of new subscribers” would be all the people that signed up, and “net gain” would be all the people that signed up & subtract those that canceled? Earnings reports are always full of word tricks to paint the prettiest picture so I’m just curious if we know the net number? For example, all those articles that came out a week after the change went into effect were bullshit bc they didn’t take into account people who canceled and still had days left til their end of month, instead they only captured the 3 days after the policy change and Netflix got all the media to report this awesome stat for them. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 4815162342@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) (1 child) . permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Boondock@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago Cheers, thank you. permalink fedilink source parent
