Many people unsubscribe from Netflix when there are no programs release that they want to see (myself included).

On the other hand, many people stay subscribed to watch "old stuff" - just like they do in FFXIV.
Except Netflix does not ask you to pay 40$ every 2.5 years to upgrade your Netflix application to keep experiencing newly released series. If you lapse your Netflix subscription, you also won't risk losing digital achievements you have gotten. Its also, obviously, an entirely different medium. (And that is not to say that Netflix is not having its own issues with disappearing media, cancelling series, etc pp)

Really, both business models cant be compared, and your comparison is wobbly at best. The only thing they truly share is a monthly access fee.
