it was fun while it lasted ...

Anyone else get the distinct feeling Netflix is trying to go out of business, and as fast as possible?

Outside the Bush administration, I haven't seen this kind of chain of stupid business decisions in a long time. My only question is WHY the execs are trying to wreck the ship. Bad investments to cover? Twenty-year-olds are running it? Time Beetles attached to their backs told them to turn right, not left?

Yes, and oh God, what are they doing *now*? Heading to Google...

I understand Amazon is offering the same streaming service now, maybe? And possibly other platforms will be doing so too?

I don't think they had a chance against the old Netflix; this was, after all, the service that helped drive Blockbuster's coffin nails in. But then somebody at Netflix had a lobotomy or it changed hands, and the thinking went south.
