Anyone else miffed at Netflix price increase???

[slayer202]

If netflix can't afford the content, there goes the money from netflix to the studios. hopefully the studios aren't as near sighted as you. Not to mention netflix is the big player. You expect someone new to take over while paying inflated content costs that netflix wouldn't have been able to afford?

You obviously don't know how business works. New services are usually introduced for free or at a low price to get as many people using and create as much buzz about the service as possible. Prices are then raised AFTER you have a large user base, generally in small increments to lower your customer drop-off.

Even drug dealers understand the concept that the first hit should be free to get customers hooked. Look at the prices of similar entertainment in this market, they are all increasing. If you thought it would stay free forever then you are the moron.

What's that you say???
