personally, knowing the cuts that either app/play store take, I would _never_ subscribe to a service through either of them, that's luckily still an option. netflix raising prices _because_ of a store tax, even for users subscribing outside of them, would be worrying, but your link has no evidence of that, right ?
Sorry, I should have been a little more careful with my wording. You are correct in that there isn't a direct quoted link. But, Netflix raised subscription prices to pay for more content...obviously paying 250 million to Apple (for basically nothing?) doesn't help their balance sheet.
I guess not everyone would look at it this way, but from a big picture standpoint it all adds up to the bottom line.
