That is why I dropped them too, but it still falls back to what Mysttic says, the Studio's and Communication companies are the ones pulling the strings and charging more or delaying releases to Netflix so others can capitalize first. Let's face it the communications companies have got way too much power and we the consumers unfortunately support that. People need to drop them, and give up their smart phones in order to curve this gouging, but we know that isn't going to happen soon.
