In September, Netflix outraged subscribers by announcing that they would be splitting the DVD-by-mail and streaming services of their company. The new company for DVDs, called Qwikster, would have its own login portal and would require subscribers to log in to both Netflix and Qwikster if they want to change their respective queues.
The move came on top of the already unpopular decision ... [ read the full article ]

Bye Bye NETFUX, you SUCK and that is why we have all left you.
With the economy being down, you raised your prices twice within a year... real smart move, who was genius behind that idea.
Oh yeah, another smart idea with the Qwikster thing... FAIL

lol! That thought crossed my mind as well. Last spring I cancelled my subscription because I was in between houses. Now that I've moved into me new home I can say I'm in no rush to start up my subscription again. With all the alternatives out there online for free why bother? So screw you Netflix, and TV providers.

Ha, I wonder who will buy Netflix? It would be really funny if Dish did buy it to make it better but there's no point since there's not much customers and they already own Blockbuster. However Blockbuster Express is own buy a different company according to Dish.

Netflix sucks, I can use Crackle for free, or download whatever i want to watch and burn it to dvd. The only ones who benefit from netflix are people who don't leave the house or don't have a modern dvd player with Crackle.

Good thing you didn't buy some on Monday!
Monday $119 and Tuesday $75. Ouch. If it heads down into the 50's I'll probably jump in.

A great example of customers speaking with their wallets. Now only if people did this to some of the other companies with bad policies/prices.

Almost dropped Netflix but since they nixed the Quikster idea I think I'll stick around awhile longer. How much longer I don't know.
Sure hope some folks bought Netflix stock a few years ago, watched it climb to to around $250 per share then sold it before the stock started falling. At least they could make some profit on Netflix's mistake!!

Not to worry. Obama just announced a trillion dollar bailout for Netflix. All is good.
