    Netflix cheapest plan won’t work over Chromecast. I’m apparently too poor to watch the service on a larger screen.

      The cheapest Netflix plan is ad supported, which is known to not work very well on lower end Chromecast devices. So it’s probably disabled that way they can milk you for the ad revenue elsewhere

      When did that happen? I’m just curious, cause I ditched Netflix but I know their cheapest plan used to work.

        At least a year now. Very blunt message saying that casting wasn’t available with my plan. Such a needlessly dickish move on their part.
