Statistics that fail independent corroboration are excluded.

Streaming customers noticed a change fast, with 2026 data showing churn rising to 5.2% after service and app issues spike. At the same time, satisfaction swings sharply depending on how quickly problems are fixed, not just how big the catalog is.
