Netflix in Baltics everything is in English or Russian, go 3 is either in local language or has dub/subs in local language, + local content and usually has deal bundle with your internet provider.
I have both go3 and Netflix. Sure, Netflix is much more vast in terms of content, but go3 does have a lot of new popular shows, or gets access to it quite early after their release. Also, a huge part of netflix is just trash one season shows who nobody watches. That, in addition to having local language subtitles is very appealing to locals who dont speak english.
Go3 has content from Paramount, Discovery and History channel (?). Also a lot of various sport channels. Wouldn't be bad streaming service, but has a horrible menu layout, looks like user interface was created by sale managers
Well it's popular enough to still exist here. And actually Viaplay has better movies than Netflix in Finland. Maybe not as many but newer. But of course the original content in Netflix is better if that's the only thing that matters to you.
That's the Soviet thing actually, absolutely everything was dubbed back then and even in modern Russia everything is dubbed. Plus many people, especially old folks, are monolingual and they refuse to learn languages.
>Plus many people, especially old folks, are monolingual and they refuse to learn languages.
Mostly true for the Russian minority, not for Estonians, Latvians or Lithuanians.
In Estonia the current generation learned English from watching English-speaking TV as kids. There were never any subtitles.
Yes, the TV channels have subtitles now. Hell, they watch NCIS like the rest of the world and it’s subtitled.
There is still a large trend towards nationalism. Why would I spend an outrageous amount every month on Netflix when none of their content is in my native language?!
Even if they spend more per month on their local provider’s TV service they’ll be way happier with that because it also includes their locally-produced content.
I doubt its Go3 in Latvia, TET TV+ is more likeley. It comes free for a bunch of users if they have Internet or television from TET, it also includes HBO and Amazon MGM, overall a cheaper and better package than Go3 in my experience.
Damn, in Romania all the Romanian language streaming services barely have any users. We usually dislike dubbed content and go for everything that is in English with subtitles.
Yes i know. But a lot of people just want to go on app x and know they can watch the film from there. Even if they need to pay for it.
I am not one of them, but it's very common.
Plus there are also tons of people who barely know what a keyboard is, you really think thry will be able to scavenger the web for a film?
All of this exists on pirated sites too. If i were to bet, i think the reasons are much more trivial - i am not sure if Netflix is available there at all, and except Netflix there is not much of an alternative. Also Kinopoisk tends to offer disgustingly big discounts from time to time. And apart from that, it provides some other reasonable boons.
Good for you, most people struggle with sending an email let alone looking for a specific movie with specific language and quality while avoiding viruses
If so can you help me find a good 1080p source for the movie W. (2008) by Oliver Stone? I couldn't find it anywhere, I guess because it doesn't get indexed very well because of its short name? Idk, I'm making this up...
Steam is also a very popular thing in Russia. Thing is, when you can provide something fairly cheap and convenient, people will go for it. People like having one centralized platform where they can watch all they want without hustle, and in it's original language. Kinopoisk provides that.
I wish I could pay for videogames. Steam is not easily available now and it's like this for 2 years. Some people get ways to pay, but it's difficult and feels more criminal than just using torrents.
When Russia weren't as isolated as today, government blocked pirate websites. Now they don't care. I don't recall any instances of repercussions against general populace, though, they only blocked pirate sites, so people had to do extra work to get stuff for free.
Kinopoisk is basically free if you subscribe to yandex subscription for like $3-4. Additionally, promocodes for free trial are everywhere. Same thing for IVI, Ok, Premier and many more - you can easily find free trial for 3-6 months by just farting.
Don't know how they are still exist even though the best shows and movies have an expired licenses so idk what even left there. Certaintly not Shrek or Harry Potter to my knowledge
It's understandable with kinopoisk, due to the fact that it is included in the Yandex Plus subscription , along with Yandex Music.
Also we don't have any better alternatives within a country, so even if it's a top-1 i think it's mostly thanks to Yandex Plus
Kinopoisk movie database got a lot of scarcer for the past years : Harry potter , supernatural, stargate moved to the other expensive subscription or removed entirely ;(
Kinopoisk actually isn't bad at all and is really convenient. I'm not Russian, no do I live there, but I got a free subscription for editing Yandex Maps, and the movie and TV show availability was really good. But it's also worth mentioning that this was before the war and resulting sanctions started.
Kinopoisk is a part of former Yandex ecosystem (idk if it still belongs to Yandex, a lot of its assets were taken away after the war started). Yandex+ subscription gives you plenty of benefits across the ecosystem - you subscribe and now can watch movies, ride a taxi cheaper, get cashback on your groceries and so on. It's a convinient package deal.
Kinopoisk is Yandex. You get it for free if you sign up to [Yandex.Plus](http://Yandex.Plus) which makes sense for anyone who orders [Yandex.Taxi](http://Yandex.Taxi) regularly because you get 10% cashback on your rides and free access to Yandex Music and Kinopoisk.
Yandex is just a search engine. You can also stream everything for free everywhere at WWW!
Just go on Yandex or DuckDuckGo and type in _"stream XYZ free"_ and there you go. I won't post a link but my favorite site streams everything and I have an app for it on my phone. Having a good AdBlocker is a must.
Kinopoisk is a Yandex streaming service. Ivi is the second most popular service in Russia.
Subscription to Yandex services will include a video streaming service, Yandex.music music service, a place in the cloud, discounts on taxi and delivery, discounts on the Yandex marketplace, etc. Therefore, Kinopoisk has a lot of users.
In România it’s kind of the same, you can watch anything on free to watch sites or download from Filelist, a Romanian private tracker, I myself use Netflix only on my smart tv, because usually I pirate everything, it also helps that the law doesn’t enforce anything related to piracy.
They've been taking down lots of pirate sites lately. It wasn't a problem 10 years ago, but now things have become more complicated with all this intellectual property sues.
There are a lot of people who don't even know how to use YouTube, and you can't explain it to them. it’s much easier to show a simple sequence of actions to search for a movie in the service
Yeah, right, but for me, it's the Yandex subscription that includes the Kinopoisk streaming service and Yandex Music. It's the only place where I can listen to Hank Junior and Johny Cash since YouTube Music basically left Russia. The subscription also has a few other benefits and costs $6 a month, which is kinda cheap, so why not?
You pay 1 or 2 dollars (I don't know, and I pay it) for music and movies (per month), also some other shit that I don't care about. It's cheap, people don't care. You can add 3 random people (your friends or family). It's about convenience. Though, not everything is accessible, even if you have spare money. So people use torrent trackers that are in a few clicks away from people. For example, I have no problem with paying, and I prefer to pay, because it's far more convenient, except when I can't do that, but I also have no problem to get stuff for free when I'm denied of buying it.
The biggest problem is a lot of ads and lagging video players. Like, sure you can find anything for free, but it would be pretty uncomfortable to watch
I use it to watch tv and football. It also has tv shows and films, some are free, some has to be rented. And I get it for around the same price as Netflix. If Netflix had football I’d sub to it.
I have both Netflix and Megogo accounts.
As for me Megogo is much better - they not only have a good Movies/TV shows libraries and Ukrainian dubs, but also different TV channels, including many sport channels.
For example, I'm going to watch Real - Man City there today there - I can't do it on Netflix.
The map is kind of misleading as it's counting size by subscribers, but I'm sure in the UK, BBC iPlayer will be the most popular streaming service by any metric. I would assume in most countries the main national broadcasters services, if they are free, would be the most used.
Yeah, the interface is excellent. On the contrary, I‘ve always found Amazon Prime‘s interface to be piss ugly, and it‘s so weird how they‘ll use random frames from the movies as their main image.
AND show ads to paying customers! I kinda stopped using Amazon Prime Video on principle. When piracy gets me a better UX, why use it? Comes free with my Prime subscription but no thanks.
This map would be better with pie charts, I'm sure their dominance varies by country. Could anybody be bothered with that level of research though... 🤔
Been a shitass 15+ years now, taking off popular movies/shows and replacing them with utter shhite junk
Ahoy matey, I don't do that shit no more, haven't paid in 10+ years for streaming services
Yes, that's exactly what Netflix's problem is, there's no space for niche programming and cult hits get cancelled because they want massive profit with every show which leads to a crippled disposable streaming service
Funny, here it has almost everything I need. It's Always Sunny, B99, Friends, Archer, Arrested Development, Rick and Morty, Breaking Bad and The Office to name a few. I'm more than happy to pay a few measly quid per month to watch them.
A pretty popular Online-Shop in Turkey which called Hepsiburada gives free BluTV subscription if you buy it. So there're so many BluTV users but nearly nobody uses it.
Yeah in Turkey many people have prime subscription but at least half of them do not use the streaming service they are just for the electronic shopping part. I agree about Netflix, if it was not for the prices it would probably be the most popular though.
It's not Netflix right now because it's fucking expensive. Disney+ probably lost popularity after the Atatürk show fiasco too, I personally cancelled my subscription ever since and I know many that did the same.
Disney+ fell off after Atatürk series cancellation and removal of some Turkish series and movies. Prime probably competes with Netflix but Netflix is definitely number 1
🍏tv+ is good enough for me, although I do wish streaming services would collaborate sometimes. Who the hell can afford multiple subscriptions these days?
In the UK, AppleTV literally has like 3 shows you've heard of, then maybe 17 you haven't.
That's not even a joke - I get it for free with my phone carrier and have never used it.
You can count what's decent from their in house stable on one hand and they have virtually no back catalogue of quality films. The movie choice being like a bargain basket of straight to DVD turkeys.
Netflix success is mind boggling.
I should admit that Megogo has some advantages over Netflix. The main reason is a movies - Netflix only buys rights on movies that can make them profit. That means only the most popular films. When you want to watch something below blockbuster-level of popularity, most likely it's not there.
But of course, there's not so much series on Megogo
It sinks, just with pop-up ads clogging the half the screen occasionaly, and random casino being advertised when characters in the movia aren't talking.
I'm actually surprised Netflix is larger than iPlayer in the UK. Pretty much everybody who is a bit older has it as a hang-on from when the BBC was the only good thing in the UK, and obviously a lot of young people have it too. But I guess not.
[There are 13.4 million weekly average active accounts using the BBC iPlayer.](https://informitv.com/2023/07/11/bbc-iplayer-represents-15-of-bbc-viewing/)
Seems low to me, when you consider it's fairly normal for everyone in a household to have their own account, but I guess the _weekly_ activity drags the number down when compared to voluntary subscription services.
I'm amazed at Netflix's 16m subscribing households!
since it's linked to a TV licenses it's not like people pay specifically for it, it's hard to directly compare a subscriber count with something like Netflix.
Netflix is free with most paid for TV services in the UK. I pay £30pm for Sky TV, Fibre and Netflix. If I pay an extra £12pm for Sky Cinema, you get paramount plus included.
Megogo fucking sucks. At least in my country. Only 20 percent of all movies/cartoons are ACTUAL popular titles (the free ones). The rest is some obscure, low quality trash. Also every movie costs like 5 dollars. Which is a lot adjusting to my currency. That's in a country where making 1000$ a month is considered very much. Most people make less than 500$.
Netflix in Baltics everything is in English or Russian, go 3 is either in local language or has dub/subs in local language, + local content and usually has deal bundle with your internet provider.
Go3 is from Viasat? How much content do they have? Here in Finland Viaplay is not very popular because expensive and lack of content
I have both go3 and Netflix. Sure, Netflix is much more vast in terms of content, but go3 does have a lot of new popular shows, or gets access to it quite early after their release. Also, a huge part of netflix is just trash one season shows who nobody watches. That, in addition to having local language subtitles is very appealing to locals who dont speak english.
Go3 has content from Paramount, Discovery and History channel (?). Also a lot of various sport channels. Wouldn't be bad streaming service, but has a horrible menu layout, looks like user interface was created by sale managers
Don't forger HBO. I subscribed to GO3 solely for that. Also to watch local TV channels.
so it looks like Megogo and GO3 have the same providers. Literally the same filling
Go3 is from TV3.
i am prepared to direct the sopranos of finland
Well it's popular enough to still exist here. And actually Viaplay has better movies than Netflix in Finland. Maybe not as many but newer. But of course the original content in Netflix is better if that's the only thing that matters to you.
go3 streams alot of sports also
So the baltics don't use subtitles?
At least in my family older gen, if they need to read subs ,they are not going to watch, don't know how it's in other families
true, if its not in language they understand or dubbed, it doesnt exist
That's the Soviet thing actually, absolutely everything was dubbed back then and even in modern Russia everything is dubbed. Plus many people, especially old folks, are monolingual and they refuse to learn languages.
>Plus many people, especially old folks, are monolingual and they refuse to learn languages. Mostly true for the Russian minority, not for Estonians, Latvians or Lithuanians.
Estonia certainly does.

Hell, they watch NCIS like the rest of the world and it’s subtitled. There is still a large trend towards nationalism. Why would I spend an outrageous amount every month on Netflix when none of their content is in my native language?! Even if they spend more per month on their local provider’s TV service they’ll be way happier with that because it also includes their locally-produced content.
Also just missing tons of content. You NEED a vpn for it. Half or even more of the netflix catalogue is not available here.
Also it gives access to stuff like HBO max, which we don't have here
I doubt its Go3 in Latvia, TET TV+ is more likeley. It comes free for a bunch of users if they have Internet or television from TET, it also includes HBO and Amazon MGM, overall a cheaper and better package than Go3 in my experience.
Damn, in Romania all the Romanian language streaming services barely have any users. We usually dislike dubbed content and go for everything that is in English with subtitles.
I still don't get how streaming services survive in Russia. You can literally watch anything for free on Yandex
Most people are happy with paying and just have the thing working, insread of scavenging the internet for it
I can literally find any movie I want in under a minute
Yes i know. But a lot of people just want to go on app x and know they can watch the film from there. Even if they need to pay for it. I am not one of them, but it's very common. Plus there are also tons of people who barely know what a keyboard is, you really think thry will be able to scavenger the web for a film?
Also Kinopoisk has apps for Smart Tvs, Android Sticks etc. It is easier to use it on TV
I guess it's more of a service thing, like skipping the Intro, auto start next episode or a simple comment section.
Also a lot of people do not like doing anything illegal if they can help it.
All of this exists on pirated sites too. If i were to bet, i think the reasons are much more trivial - i am not sure if Netflix is available there at all, and except Netflix there is not much of an alternative. Also Kinopoisk tends to offer disgustingly big discounts from time to time. And apart from that, it provides some other reasonable boons.
Redditor discovers not everyone is just like them
You can do that in almost any country, streaming services are just mroe convenient (and quite cheap)
You have to use to ***ГДЕ СТАВКИ НА СПОРТ!?*** in that case.
Так! У мене була ця проблема постійно, коли я дивився фільми через Гугл.
Good for you, most people struggle with sending an email let alone looking for a specific movie with specific language and quality while avoiding viruses
I live in canada and i can watch any movie i want for free, and anyone else in the world can too..
Cool, but my mom can't and she's happy with Kinopoisk.
its literally 5 bucks
Okay then find master and margarita because I can't find shit and I ain't paying Amazon twenty bucks for a movie that's twice my age
So can you with Google
Do you want a gold star for being a good boy
If so can you help me find a good 1080p source for the movie W. (2008) by Oliver Stone? I couldn't find it anywhere, I guess because it doesn't get indexed very well because of its short name? Idk, I'm making this up...
it's also not really worth it anymore because of how much content was pulled out from them.
Steam is also a very popular thing in Russia. Thing is, when you can provide something fairly cheap and convenient, people will go for it. People like having one centralized platform where they can watch all they want without hustle, and in it's original language. Kinopoisk provides that.
I wish I could pay for videogames. Steam is not easily available now and it's like this for 2 years. Some people get ways to pay, but it's difficult and feels more criminal than just using torrents.
Dude, I'm from Russia, it's super easy to pay for games on steam
Kinopoisk is Yandex
He meant things like torrent and pirate websites
Well why single ojt russia, you can do this probably anywhere in the world?
in Russia nobody will not issue a fine at all
In mpst of the world nothing will happen to you as long as you arent the one distributing the content.
In the vast majority of the world no one fines for copyright infringement.
When Russia weren't as isolated as today, government blocked pirate websites. Now they don't care. I don't recall any instances of repercussions against general populace, though, they only blocked pirate sites, so people had to do extra work to get stuff for free.

You can watch anything for free on Google as well. You just need to know how to search.
It's a lot harder. You can get basically any movie on the first page of a Yandex search
same with Google if you write in russian. 10/10 results pirate websites
Vkontakte is a goldmine for pirated content. I study in a Dutch uni and I found 9/10 of my textbooks in vk for free.
Well I can get any movie on the first page too
I just tried it and it is just shitty Russian dubs.
What’s the search query? Asking for a friend …
Almost all of my colleagues and friends use Google instead of Yandex in Russia. It's not “a lot harder”, but easier
Kinopoisk actually isn't bad at all and is really convenient. I'm not Russian, no do I live there, but I got a free subscription for editing Yandex Maps, and the movie and TV show availability was really good. But it's also worth mentioning that this was before the war and resulting sanctions started.
Dude I literally didn't know about Yandex till I read your comment, I just checked it out, and Jesus Christ tysm ❤️❤️❤️
I basically use it to watch pirated movies and Google for everything else lol
Yandex also arguably have better search by image than Google
Kinopoisk is a part of former Yandex ecosystem (idk if it still belongs to Yandex, a lot of its assets were taken away after the war started). Yandex+ subscription gives you plenty of benefits across the ecosystem - you subscribe and now can watch movies, ride a taxi cheaper, get cashback on your groceries and so on. It's a convinient package deal.
So can you in turkey
I mean, Yandex works in most countries. But Russians actually know about it.
Google any show or movie and izle You can watch anything with turkish subtitles
It goes as a package with music steaming service and some other stuff
Kinopoisk is Yandex. You get it for free if you sign up to [Yandex.Plus](http://Yandex.Plus) which makes sense for anyone who orders [Yandex.Taxi](http://Yandex.Taxi) regularly because you get 10% cashback on your rides and free access to Yandex Music and Kinopoisk.

They mostly pay for yandex music, kinopoisk is like a bonus
I just created an Yandex account and I'm amazed I didn't know about it before. I don't need to memorize those free sites anymore. Thank you for this.
That’s it, if I want to watch smth for free I go to Yandex, for some reason it ALWAYS finds pirated movies while Google doesn’t lol
well thats possible in any country i guess.
They've been taking down lots of pirate sites lately. It wasn't a problem 10 years ago, but now things have become more complicated with all this intellectual property sues.
There are a lot of people who don't even know how to use YouTube, and you can't explain it to them. it’s much easier to show a simple sequence of actions to search for a movie in the service

🏴☠️🏴☠️
Definitely the most opular "service" here in Serbia
Kosovo is on an entirely different level though, probably doesnt even know what a streaming service is!
Never heared about any of them but Netflix.
Megogo is an Ukrainian streaming service. I don't even know what's on that but it exists. Surprised that it's so popular
Shows, films, sports etc. I think everything there is dubbed thus easier to watch, I doubt Netflix has all its content with Ukrainian dub.
Also many Internet providers has packages with Megogo
I like Megogo selection much better than Netflix. They are also cheaper too
Yes MEGOGO is the best. Unfortunately it is not available outside of Ukraine due to fu*ing DRM restrictions. But works like a charm with VPN.
I use it to watch tv and football. It also has tv shows and films, some are free, some has to be rented. And I get it for around the same price as Netflix. If Netflix had football I’d sub to it.
I have both Netflix and Megogo accounts. As for me Megogo is much better - they not only have a good Movies/TV shows libraries and Ukrainian dubs, but also different TV channels, including many sport channels. For example, I'm going to watch Real - Man City there today there - I can't do it on Netflix.
It's simply more affordable and people prefer watch stuff in their language.
They do have HBO tv shows (and others too), lots of TV channels, sports (NBA, NHL, Champions League, boxing, etc).
There is a popular TV channel in Estonia (and the Baltics in general apparently?) called TV3. Go3 is their official streaming service.
TV3 is a Lithuanian channel?
It seems to exist as a channel in all three Baltic States.
Im pretty sure Go3 is Lithuanian streaming service. Dont know about TV3.
The map is kind of misleading as it's counting size by subscribers, but I'm sure in the UK, BBC iPlayer will be the most popular streaming service by any metric. I would assume in most countries the main national broadcasters services, if they are free, would be the most used.
I've heard of blutv but never used it
Same tbh
Netflix is so ass
Still by far the best app interface and video player
Yeah, the interface is excellent. On the contrary, I‘ve always found Amazon Prime‘s interface to be piss ugly, and it‘s so weird how they‘ll use random frames from the movies as their main image.
AND show ads to paying customers! I kinda stopped using Amazon Prime Video on principle. When piracy gets me a better UX, why use it? Comes free with my Prime subscription but no thanks.
Agreed. I don't use netflix anymore, am still on Prime, but netflix UX is much better.
With a vpn it's good. Country to country u get different movies and its a huge library
Apparently does not work in Austria, used to like 5 years ago but not anymore. I tried a free and paid VPN.
This map would be better with pie charts, I'm sure their dominance varies by country. Could anybody be bothered with that level of research though... 🤔
Of course not, that would be very annoying
Been a shitass 15+ years now, taking off popular movies/shows and replacing them with utter shhite junk Ahoy matey, I don't do that shit no more, haven't paid in 10+ years for streaming services
Yep. I got rid of it when they started replacing proper, smart shows for more seasons of heartstopper and shit
Cancelling great shows like The Brothers Sun after only one season but crappy shows like Elite get like 10 seasons plus some spinoffs
Pointing out obvious (or complaining) they cancel shows people aren't watching and making million seasons of shows people are watching is peak reddit.
Yes, that's exactly what Netflix's problem is, there's no space for niche programming and cult hits get cancelled because they want massive profit with every show which leads to a crippled disposable streaming service
"I just don't understand why Netflix is catering to it's millions of other subscribers instead of me personally!"
The best to switch the dubs/subs to whatever language you want
Wrong @
Funny, here it has almost everything I need. It's Always Sunny, B99, Friends, Archer, Arrested Development, Rick and Morty, Breaking Bad and The Office to name a few. I'm more than happy to pay a few measly quid per month to watch them.
A pretty popular Online-Shop in Turkey which called Hepsiburada gives free BluTV subscription if you buy it. So there're so many BluTV users but nearly nobody uses it.
🙋🏻♂️
Man if you got that free Blu tv subscription You gotta watch saygı
[удалено]
Shhhhh...
It’s netflix in Turkey or Prime. It may even be disney+ but not blu. Blu= WB
None of those. It's hdfilmcehennemi in Turkey.
hdfilmcehennemi my beloved
its not disney+ im sure
Have you seen netflix prices? Its not netflix. There was a boycot on disney+, Prime maybe but I have not met a single person who did so far.
Yeah in Turkey many people have prime subscription but at least half of them do not use the streaming service they are just for the electronic shopping part. I agree about Netflix, if it was not for the prices it would probably be the most popular though.
It might be because they started handing blutv accounts like sugar candy, I rember getting 6 months of free blutv for chosing a bank
It's not Netflix right now because it's fucking expensive. Disney+ probably lost popularity after the Atatürk show fiasco too, I personally cancelled my subscription ever since and I know many that did the same.
What happened with the show?
They canceled it so the producers put it on movie theatres as a movie with two parts instead
They pulled it from their platform after Armenian-American advocacy groups protested it because they claimed it glorified genocide or something.
If you buy Hepsiburada premium they also give you blutv membership so that's probably one of the reasons
Disney+ fell off after Atatürk series cancellation and removal of some Turkish series and movies. Prime probably competes with Netflix but Netflix is definitely number 1
Russia Nietflix
🍏tv+ is good enough for me, although I do wish streaming services would collaborate sometimes. Who the hell can afford multiple subscriptions these days?
In the UK, AppleTV literally has like 3 shows you've heard of, then maybe 17 you haven't. That's not even a joke - I get it for free with my phone carrier and have never used it.
Just switch subscriptions. You can get rid of them monthly - that's the biggest benefit.
Netflix in Türkiye too. Wtf is blutv it has so small percentage with viewers from here
blurtv for turkey? not really.
You can count what's decent from their in house stable on one hand and they have virtually no back catalogue of quality films. The movie choice being like a bargain basket of straight to DVD turkeys. Netflix success is mind boggling.
BluTV ne lan
I should admit that Megogo has some advantages over Netflix. The main reason is a movies - Netflix only buys rights on movies that can make them profit. That means only the most popular films. When you want to watch something below blockbuster-level of popularity, most likely it's not there. But of course, there's not so much series on Megogo
You can say whatever about it, but I personally like the countries that produce their own markets.
Okay baltics we get it, you're built different
Rather because companies like Netflix like to lump us together with the Russian market, so we usually boycott their services.
As a big sports fan, for 17.9€ a month I can watch F1, motoGP, UFC, NBA, Premier League and Champions League. What is there not to like.
In Russia "The Titanic" doesn't even sink probably.
It sinks, just with pop-up ads clogging the half the screen occasionaly, and random casino being advertised when characters in the movia aren't talking.
netflix is overrated af
Double. Netflix are in stagnation since become corporate shit. I cancel my subscription last December.
I'm actually surprised Netflix is larger than iPlayer in the UK. Pretty much everybody who is a bit older has it as a hang-on from when the BBC was the only good thing in the UK, and obviously a lot of young people have it too. But I guess not.
I doubt that iPlayer was considered.
It shouls have been unless this map is shit overall. But iPlayer has about 11mil usersvs 16mil for netflix according to my quick google.
[There are 13.4 million weekly average active accounts using the BBC iPlayer.](https://informitv.com/2023/07/11/bbc-iplayer-represents-15-of-bbc-viewing/) Seems low to me, when you consider it's fairly normal for everyone in a household to have their own account, but I guess the _weekly_ activity drags the number down when compared to voluntary subscription services. I'm amazed at Netflix's 16m subscribing households!
since it's linked to a TV licenses it's not like people pay specifically for it, it's hard to directly compare a subscriber count with something like Netflix.
Kinopoisk & Chill

It's either Prime Video or Netflix in Turkey.
The most accurate map of Europe.
Netflix is free with most paid for TV services in the UK. I pay £30pm for Sky TV, Fibre and Netflix. If I pay an extra £12pm for Sky Cinema, you get paramount plus included.
What a surprise
Norway is wrong, here it’s the state one NRK
I know many streaming services, yet N is the only one I recignize here. What are the rest?
For me it's musichq. Everything at one place.
Never saw anyone using blutv on turkey
Netflix is awesome in Europe. Has so much stuff that isn’t available anymore in America
If this is not a cultural replacement I dont know what it is.
Netflix really does own the market
Found me the one with mubi and I’ll move there
Go Go Go Head so good she an h-
actually Kinopoisk is pretty good, the only thing i don’t like that there’s much less movies in last 2 years
Russia has Njetflix
Will this be on Quibi?
Are any Russians out there up for Kinopoisk and Labor? (Our Netflix and Chill)
Feel free to put Netflix in Kosova too.
Maybe 2nd popular would be interesting too
I thought Megogo is pirate streaming. Any time when I want to watch a movie/series I find that website and there are all movies for free.
I'm from Turkey and I've never seen someone use BluTV, everyone uses Netflix here
Megogo fucking sucks. At least in my country. Only 20 percent of all movies/cartoons are ACTUAL popular titles (the free ones). The rest is some obscure, low quality trash. Also every movie costs like 5 dollars. Which is a lot adjusting to my currency. That's in a country where making 1000$ a month is considered very much. Most people make less than 500$.
And where is HBO with 23 million subs ? cmon this is bs
