Here’s a goddamn tissue, Edward Cullen. Are the tears running down your cheek ruining your careful applique of sparkles? It’s a company, and you’re a customer. Grow a pair and act like a crapdamn 12-year old for a change. Jesus.
Apparently bloggers think “business” is another word for “kumbaya.” It isn’t. It’s the another word for business.
Sure, you say you love them, which is all well and good, because they want you to form an emotional connection with them, but did you think for a moment that the feeling was mutual? Did you think that Netflix was in it for the feelings? Did you think you made them all warm and gooey every time you placed an order?
Businesses aren’t supposed to help you and love you and make you happy. They’re not supposed to keep you safe; they’re supposed to get your money and then do whatever they can to get more of it. If the best way to get more money is by fucking you over, then that’s what they’re legally required to do.
Yes, it sucks that Netflix is screwing you over, business is business, and they’re just trying to keep the lights on.
(The only exception to this rule is Apple, but that goes without saying. )

A comment on that site made a good point

If you didn't care enough to go see it in Theaters, you don't care enough to go rent it, and you don't care enough to go buy the dvd when it comes out, then you don't care enough to get upset that netflix will make you wait.

Not sure what his comment about Apple is about. Seems like they're the kings of screwing people over.
