Even then, a small underpowered x64 VM for testing purposes is often free on all hyperscalers. Not the fastest server, but depending on the use case?
Same. I don’t really get why.
I’m fine with the release of a single episode every week like if it were running on TV. I love when all episodes are out on the release day, as I could binge watch them.
From Netflix’ POV it’s probably that they’re trying to maximize customer retention? If everything is out on day one, I could subscribe for a single month and then cancel the subscription. But I don’t really see a difference to releasing the episodes regularly besides, that I may now binge watch at three different dates instead of 1-3 days after release?
