Netflix, Belgium - 01 Apr 2019

For a whole month, Netflix will reduce the video streaming quality of its service in Europe. This will help prevent unnecessary bandwidth stress on internet service providers. Demand for the streaming service has increased in major parts of Europe due to the self-isolation measures people have undertaken due to the coronavirus outbreak. Netflix will reduce picture quality, but claims it won’t hamper the media consumption experience for viewers.
