Hey Safr!! Any BF2 lately? :-) I have Netflix and generally like it, but am ticked at the CEO’s comment (not about the Canadian service...they get no DVD’s and a more limited selection streamed for $1. less, big deal!).
Here is the quote from the Canada interview:
Reporter Q:”Are you concerned that American Netflix subscribers will look north and ask for the same discount Canadians get at $7.99?”
“(Reed)Hastings(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.”
I am on the “2 out at once plan w/Blu-Ray” ($18.+) and will be reducing to the “1 out no blu-ray” or suspending my account for awhile. Not a good idea to “dis” your American customers while in a foreign country.
His “apology” here: (note the comments)
