▍原文
A burst of people signed up for Netflix this spring, after the streaming giant cracked down on password sharing.
The company ended June with more than 238 million subscribers, adding 5.9 million members since March.
That was bigger than expected and follows efforts by the company to re-ignite growth following unusual subscriber losses last spring.
