The iPhone app has always been streaming only. It's sort of annoying
Not to be able to manage your DVD queue from it, but far more annoying that titles that are available as streaming but added as DVDs do not show up in the streaming queue.

had cancelled my dvd by mail when the new price change went into effect. today i cancelled the rest of the service too. just not enough films, esp when you've got hulu/on-demand/tcm what have you.

that's tmc obv

you had it right the first time

oh shit. you're right. lol.

got an email from my bank abt sending them some info for my halfway activated brokerage account, lol I have a vague memory of drunk one nite being all maybe I will buy some of that Netflix stock u jerks, tho I totally don't recall actally attempting and failing to open a brokerage account

hah

loll

ha

pretty sure that's how reed hastings makes all his decisions too

Drink booze, invent quickster

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/entertainmentnewsbuzz/2011/11/netflix-to-bring-back-arrested-development.html

BUT you can only stream it from a different web site: www.arrester.com
and there will be a slight price increase

its a uh poorly constructed model website where all the episodes live together shit

bring back party down and all is forgiven netflix

^^ was gonna post this, it's the logical next step.

iirc party down got canceled cause all their actors got better jobs

glee's on a downward slide, ratings-wise...i love parks & rec but do i love party down more? idk i'd need to ruminate seriously on that

party down > p&r, no contest

their finale on starz got like 16,000 viewers or something insane acc'ding 2 adam scott. i think it was more ppl jumped ship when it was clear the writing was on the wall

it is deeply, deeply tempting to buy a shit-ton of Netfliz stock

I can't believe it won't go back up

It's looking right now like we should have all followed this advice.

Ayuh.
Up 30% I think.
Fuckers reneged on renting games tho, thanks a lot

anyone else notice a bunch of stuff bounce out of their 'saved' section? i read speculation on the criterion forum that this is prob just netflix lowering its threshhold of what they take out of circulation rather than acquiring new physical copies of things, which i would think is right but ima move several of these up my queue

has anyone watchedhttp://cdn-8.nflximg.com/en_us/boxshots/tv_sdp_s/70221438.jpg?

I just noticed that this morning on the inside of the Netflix envelope! It surprised me because I'm still watching the Sopranos and was like WAHT

also curious about this.

watched the first five minutes, seemed awful

like the first scene is two mobsters at a funeral just giving unveiled exposition

and it has that 'showtime' look to it

i've been curious about this show, too ... it definitely looks like sopranos-fan bait, whatever its quality.

and it has that 'showtime' look to it

wth is this about. It's like every show is transferred from NTSC to PAL and then back.

idk it's really bizarre, fwiw homeland doesnt look like that, so they are capable

it's always been that way too, going back to that Sherilyn Fenn show, Chris Isaak show etc.

Thursday marked one year since Netflix announced an unpopular price increase in the U.S. It has bounced back this year to revive its subscriber growth, though its stock remains 70 percent down from its peak about a year ago.

what they lost in money, they made up in laughs...and isn't that what life is about?

Mittwoch!

Netflix is driving me crazy. I've have justified season 3 at the top of my queue since even before it was released but they keep not sending the 1st disc, even though it shows as available. They've passed over it 6 times now.

I had man men queued up, got the first two discs then the third became a 'very long wait' and so logically they sent disc 4. It's been a long wait for like three weeks now.

I swear that in the past when I waited more than a couple days they'd send you one from a different city and apologize profusely. I think their official policy now is "fuck you DVD people".

I want to complain to support, but you have to call them??? As far as I can tell.

I had man men queued up

Take it to the TMI thread. But yeah, they've pretty much stopped giving shit one about DVD users at this point.

Only a wunderkind if he bought shit-tons of the stock.

I've been having all kinds of trouble over the last several months streaming netflix. I've seen the quality drop considerably, below SD in many cases, especially during prime hours. All other streaming services are working fine and streaming in HD or near HD quality. Some web searches reveal that this has been a common problem with people who use Comcast. It's driving me crazy and will probably make me either switch ISP's or cancel netflix all together. I don't want to cancel netflix, I use it all the time and stream several hours of TV shows each day. It's my main source of entertainment.

I have the same issue with Time Warner, I plan to switch to U-verse when I move.
