Churn is the silent tax on streaming growth. In this episode, Lucas and Luna dig into the metrics and strategies behind subscriber retention at Spotify and Netflix. They break down how Spotify cut its churn rate from 5.0% to 3.9% in the last year, and how Netflix's ad tier now accounts for 40% of new sign-ups in ad-supported markets. They also explore the 'retention flywheel'—personalization, bundling, and engagement loops—and ask whether the industry is approaching a natural floor for churn. Plus, a look at how the battle for subscriber loyalty is reshaping content investment and pricing strategy. #StreamingTech #Netflix #Spotify #Churn #Retention #SubscriberGrowth #AdTier #Bundling #Personalization #Engagement #MediaTech #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #StreamingWars #CustomerLoyalty #PodcastAdvertising Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
