Several reasons
1) they beleive in paying for a service and not stealing.
2) quality of netflix is much better than free streams, more convenient, and saves time (no viruses, no broken link, crappy streams, terrible search engines etc etc)
3) 10-15 bucks a month is like nothing and unless you are on welfare should have little impact on you financially.
4) You can still illegally stream on top of having netflix
