I think it remains to be seen if that is sustainable groth or if it is a short term effect and piracy will pick back up as people ditch netflix and the other streaming services as they become more inconvenient.

More expensive isn’t really less convenient in that sense, it’s just as easy as before to watch Netflix. You just have to pay more (or watch ads).
That’s the reason why Netflix and Spotify won over piracy. Convenience, not price.
Still sucks though.
