WHY????? Netflix just issued another $2 billion in debt. I believe their total debt is almost $10 billion and they are burning through cash faster than the Joker from "The Dark Knight". They are blowing money producing and acquiring content.

They are trying to get bought-out by some big studio.

The problem is that they should have done that before they decided to start going bankrupt.

Wow, finally something that might be worth watching on Netflix!

Their content seriously went downhill a few years ago and I quit watching. Since I wasn’t transgender, liberal or black, there was no longer much meant for me to watch...

If they were making tons of cash, they wouldn’t need junk bonds...

Wall street has NFLX absurdly valued at 130 BILLION dollars in value...About the same valuation as McDonalds.

All they do is stream content either borrowed, stolen, or a few shows of their own. They replaced Hollywood Video and Blockbuster which are now bankrupt.

There is nothing proprietary that NFLX has that really cements them permanently into history. And, the left wing propaganda ministry that they aligned with during their rise to fame and fortune is no longer in power...

Until it’s re-released in 4K UHD I’m not interested.

Just about all Netflix can/does put up is their original content and Bollywood/Paki CRAAAAP! They let themselves be out bid for content by their competitors and if they continue on this path they will go the way of Blockbuster.
