Hmmm... I might need to cut my Netflix subscription back a tier or two.

Bad answer to the question. He should have pointed out that the Canadians don’t get physical delivery - only streaming. So, in fact, they are getting less that US subscribers.

I hated Netflix . They sent broken or unplayable disks about a third of the time and turnaround was really slow. I use a local rental outlet now and am much happier.

Doesn’t bother me. I just wish that Netflix had some kind of plain text index, because vast amounts of their inventory I would like to rent I have no clue they even have.

A big help is the “Hacking Netflix” website, because it at least has a handy list of new releases. I’ve probably picked up a hundred titles that would have otherwise been missed there.

14 bucks a month is a bargin for what I get (2 DVD’s at a time and all the streaming I can handle). I’m at a point where I’m condemplating getting rid of cable TV. I get my news from sites such as this and my entertainment mailed to me.

I pay about $15 a month for netflix.

I LOVE THE SERVICE! It’s a great deal for me,
and as long as the good service continues,
I certainly don’t mind paying less than half of what
I would normally spend for the CRAP cable service offers.

WHY the hell should I be ticked off over what they are charging Canadians???

Better yet, What the hell business is it of mine what my next door neighbor is paying for the same service???

What the hell is wrong with Netflix expanding???

Libtards need to BUTT THE HELL OUT!... and quit trying to convince me I’m getting screwed.

Netflix can damb well charge whatever the hell they want to.
If they charge too much, I’m sure a good competitor will come along eventually. I’ll complain then by switching.

There is so much free on the internet I’m surprised Netflix is still so viable.

THR: Are you concerned that American Netflix subscribers will look north and ask for the same discount Canadians get at $7.99?

Hastings [Netflix CEO]: How much has it been your experience that Americans follow what happens in the world? It's something we'll monitor, but Americans are somewhat self-absorbed.


So long, and thanks for all the fish. We'd cancel Obama's subscription too, but unfortunately his contract runs till 2012.

I used to like Red Box until everyone else did too, and the lines started.

Netflix & NBC Universal Announce Expanded Streaming Partnership

Netflix has signed yet another deal for streaming content, and this time it's with NBC Universal. The deal expands the existing partnership for NBC shows, and also adds content from NBC Universal's cable channels, USA Network and Syfy.

"We are very pleased to continue our successful relationship with Netflix," said Frances Manfredi, executive vice president and general sales manager of cable and non-theatrical sales for NBC Universal Domestic TV Distribution, who forged the deal.  "We applaud Netflix for recognizing the value of content like 'SNL,' 'Friday Night Lights,' 'Monk,' and 'Battlestar Galactica' to their subscribers."

So what shows does this deal include?

  • Past episodes of Saturday Night Live, plus new shows a day after they air through 2012.
  • Past seasons of 30 Rock, The Office, and Law & Order: SVU.
  • All past seasons of Friday Night Lights, Psych, In Plain Sight, and Monk.
  • More than 75 episodes of Battlestar Galactica, plus Destination Truth and Eureka.
