Netflix believes that it's difficult to compete against the free entertainment piracy offers. Not only that, it's growing rapidly too.

Let's see in the last few years Netflix has DOUBLED their price from about $12 to $24/month. Dumped tons of beloved shows. Added fucking commercials (literal content poison). Other services have shredded series so that some seasons are on one service and some are on another. Paramount has (I think) 3 different services with their content (Peacock, Paramount+, Showtime) which blows my mind. What's difficult to compete with is insatiable greed. Oh and did I forget to mention the latest trend of "disappearing" content that you literally bought??!! The hubris required to even make that statement is mindblowing.
