You may have run in to this, but Hulu also limits (or they were before I canceled the service personally) the number of “homes” you can use it at, and they tracked this by IP. So, if your customer’s IP changes more than a few times a year they will not be able to use the service they’re paying for.
Last time I was responsible for said problem I was looking at alternate solutions to do CGNAT on, and reducing the domains from an architecture perspective…obviously they both have big repercussions.

I just checked and it looks like Youtube and Netflix do which is a
pretty good chunk. Not sure about Amazon Prime. I was actually thinking
about social media which i think it's pretty well supported.
