I yin the 200k is just Aussie subscribers though? Or are you saying they also had 6 million new aussie ones?

The article isn't 100% clear, but it says "get lost 200k". They the next sentence "the first time they've lost aussie subscribers"

It is pretty clear the article is talking about Australian subscribers.

Oh my bad. I misread your comment as saying they gained 6 million.

Yeah that makes sense.

Sounds like net loss then. So what's the usual gain rate? We need to know the difference to know the actual impact. If they were getting +200k before then they actually lost a net 400k users from previous rate which is a bigger deal
