Sorry, but that's just incorrect.

Average daily Sign-ups to Netflix reached 73k during that period, a +102% increase from the prior 60-day average. [...] Cancels also increased during this period, but not as much as Sign-ups. The ratio of Sign-ups to Cancels since May 23rd is up +25.6% compared to the previous 60-day period.

That's US-only data.
