Netflix is starting to raise prices in some countries as growth spurred by its crackdown on password sharing starts to fade.

The film and TV streaming giant said it had already lifted subscription fees in Japan and parts of Europe as well as the Middle East and Africa over the last month.

Changes in Italy and Spain are now being rolled-out.

In its latest results, Netflix announced that it had added 5.1 million subscribers between July and September - ahead of forecasts but the smallest gain in more than a year.

Netflix is good streaming Gets expensive and sharing increases Banish Sharing and can't get more users Raises prices and won't get new users.

They would have been better off lowering the price by 10-20% after carrying out the ban to pick up many of the users they lost.
