Project Overview

The Problem

  • Major outage on Dec 15 disrupted playback and access globally

  • Library scrape on Dec 22 exposed nearly the entire catalog to piracy

  • Upcoming US price hike (Q1 2026) amid declining user trust

Core Challenge

  • Users losing confidence in platform reliability and content security

  • Subscription perceived as less exclusive when library is vulnerable

  • "Why pay more?" sentiment growing right before price increase

Impact at Stake

• Risk of 10–15% churn spike post-price hike
• Significant NPS drop and weakened Premium value perception
• Long-term threat to subscriber retention and ARPU growth
