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?

It's the jack-up of 60 percent all at once. If they wanted to raise their prices, they could've done it over a period of time, a couple of dollars at a time, and it would've been justified. But the streaming thing - if true - would be bollocks. Someone else provided a link to an article explaining it's not true (posted elsewhere in this comment thread).
