On June 8th Netflix updated their Watch Instantly section of their website apparently without any customer input. They did a horrible job and there are now over 3,853 complaints on their blog and no response from management. Hopefully, this gets picked up by the MSM (I know) and puts some pressure on them.

I just noticed that going over to see the new releases. I don’t think it is that bad, it is kind of like the cover flow on iTunes. I just wish they would have an option to re-size the images.

I just signed back up this weekend and the site doesn’t appear to work with Firefox anymore. I switched to Chrome and it works OK, but I don’t like it.

I now have in my Netflix list “Classic Romantic Mistaken-Identity Movies”, “Heartfelt Dramas based on contemporary literature”, and “Independent Gambling Movies”. I suppose I must have watched something that matched those criteria, but where is the “Something the wife will watch and not bore me to death” category?

The netflix website is very bad, always has been. A great product, but hard to browse.

I use instantwatcher.com always rather than netflix.

They changed their rates as well, sort of unnoticed. You can no longer view content on multiple devices. You now have to sign up for 1, 2, or 3 disk options to view on more than one device.

No notice whatsoever until you try to watch on two devices. Until they can actually do closed captions or titles, the service is of little value to me.

My home page is Netflik.

I noticed the change and just adapted to it.

I have pretty much watched everything they have that I care to watch so I am usually only interested in their newest material.

I have the cheapest service they offer $10 a month for one disk at a time. This is not a problem as I usually just watch the instant (streaming) movies.

I keep a bunch in my instant que and use them as background stuff while working in my home office.

Yes, I noticed changes just yesterday and didn’t like them.
