Then you don't understand why long term reliable customers are better than intermittent ones...

Which means you don't know anything else about business, and are just going off vibes

I'm sure they tested it and found that enough customers would stay to make it profitable.

Consumers, especially Apple users, accept higher prices. It's baffling to me but true.

In 2014, Netflix was $8/month. It's now 12 years later and Netflix is $20/month.

It's a numbers game. Are there so many? Why else would a company care?
