CTOnews.com, May 24 / PRNewswire-Asianet /-- due to the global economic downturn and signs of saturation in the streaming market, Netflix is trying to find more ways to generate revenue, such as restricting users from borrowing accounts and launching new low-cost advertising packages.

Netflix today launched an "additional membership" charging scheme in Hong Kong and Taiwan. if it is a "non-cohabiting but sharing Netflix account", each person in Hong Kong will have to pay an additional HK $28 per month (CTOnews.com Note: currently about 25 yuan), and each person in Taiwan will have to pay an additional NT $100 per month (currently about 23 yuan).

In addition, 1 non-roommate will be added to the Netflix standard subscription scheme and 2 non-roommates will be added to the advanced subscription scheme.

The official answer to the question of how Netflix determines that non-residents share Netflix accounts is:

Netflix co-home devices are defined as follows: all devices connected to the local network in the main location where you watch the Netflix. You can use TV to set up Netflix devices in the same household. As long as the devices are connected to the same network as this TV and use your account, the system will automatically set these devices as your Netflix devices.

We will use a variety of information to determine whether the login device of the account has been set to your Netflix home device, including IP address, device identification number and account activity.

We do not collect GPS information when trying to determine the exact location of the device.
