After ages I changed my region in YouTube to India to watch what's trending after all that arguing. YouTube still hasn't learn how to cater it's audience. On trending page there are videos of all parts of India in different languages. Here's the deal. Videos needs to be segregated on their respective language. Assamese user logging in on YouTube doesn't have any business to do with a Tamil news video or Big Boss Telegu promo video. This should've been done years ago.

Prime Video has removed Johnny Bravo season 1 few days back. I was busy watching 9th episode and the next day it vanished. Now only S2-S4 is available. Prime should have a soon leaving section like Hotstar so that subscribers don't have to suffer like i did. Now i have to resort to some toons site to finish watching it.

I think Netflix should reduce their indian pricing a little bit maybe 30-40%. Maybe 300 rupees pack for 2 devices with 720p quality. 10 Dollars is nothing for American standard but 800 rupees a lot for most of the people.

Pricing ain't going down. Netflix makes lots of expensive original content. One episode of Sacred Games cost around ₹100 crore for 8 episodes it cost ₹800 crores. So asking ₹800 for 4 screen can be justified. Also Amazon makes money from e-commerce. Star makes money from worldwide syndication of television content. Same applies to other streaming platforms who are major studios who has alternative ways of making money from like merch and theatre releases. Netflix has no special privileges.

I think 100 crore for all episodes.
Btw I agree 800 pack is the best. But u have to find another 3 people to share the cost.
I'm ready to pay to pay 200 for Netflix than paying 153 NCF charge and getting useless sh#tt channels.
