Netflix has issued an apology to its customers that experienced the temporary downtime on Tuesday of the company's streaming service.
The company has credited users 3 percent of the $8 monthly fee for streaming, giving subscribers 23 cents back.
If everyone was affected, that means the move will cost Netflix up to $4 million.
Says the email:
