Streaming services are now at a surplus in Australia. Netflix may soon cost more, however, under a reported government plan to apply the GST to the international streaming service set to be announced in the Federal Budget. If Netflix increased in price, would you go back to piracy?
Obviously we don’t condone piracy, but we’re under no illusions that people download copyright-protected material illegally. Most hardcore pirates will use any excuse to head back to The Pirate Bay, and the so-called Netflix Tax might just serve as that excuse.
So, tell us: would you go back?
