Because profit. And weak consumer culture just accepts it as normal. Smart consumers are left to look for other means, or are left to sail the high seas.

I was a huge supporter of Netflix when it launched. Easy to use, affordable, and lots of selection. As the streaming service has splintered and shows disappear without warning I find myself back on the high seas.
As Gabe once said:
One thing that we have learned is that piracy is not a pricing issue. It’s a service issue,
If you make it harder to stream and keep up with what's where then piracy it's no surprise people will ultimately choose the latter. Though the price thing has gotten crazy too. Multiple streaming services can now equal or eclipse cable TV prices... And yeah, you can come and go but again that comes back to the service issue. I don't know about you but I don't want to have to evaluate monthly which streaming services I need then drop the ones I don't and add the ones I do.
Where die Netflix make it harder to stream? I always hear that wrong point. There are other streaming providers and so the selection is splitted. If Netflix would habe wanted all conted, they had to pay an adventurous sum. The pricing would be ridiculous. It is simply the market and everyone wants a piece. Not great but not Netflix fault. Less quality and higher prices instead would be a point
