More Americans are redefining family to include friends and neighbors when sharing subscription services due to rising costs. The average U.S. consumer pays for five video subscriptions a month and seeks ways to save money. Sharing subscriptions like Nintendo Switch Online and phone plans with acquaintances has become common. Companies such as AT&T adopt flexible definitions of family plans, encouraging shared payments. In contrast, companies like Netflix warn users of new enforcement on password sharing, highlighting the shifting policies in the subscription service landscape.
"The average US consumer pays for about five video subscriptions a month, so people figure out all sorts of ways to game the system."
"It's been smooth sailing for years," Nicole Nikolich said about sharing her phone plan with her roommate.
