Netflix responds to change in their concurrent video streaming policy

so we have to pay more to stream onto another device if we want to watch videos at the same time?

This is probably in response to all of the people who cut off their 3-disks-at-a-time plan, kept streaming, and started getting disks from blockbuster.

Well, truth be told this is not a totally new Netflix "rule". They just didn't bother to enforce it till now, at least as far as I know.

I reduced my Netflix servise to streaming only and will dump them when another company comes along even if the service is not as good. NETFLIX SUCKS .. The CEO should be fired.

Netflix's streaming library is too small.
I could never find anything worth watching.
I'll come back in a few years if they fix that.

Yeah, their streamin library is garbage. This rule makes sense but man, it comes at a hard time. Most people are still pissed at the previous change. Rent from Blockbuster? What's Blockbuster? In Long Island, NY they have all but vanished. good thing there is Redbox and my local library for the oldies.

STILL WAITING FOR OTHER COMPANY TO OFFER STREAMING AND DVD. THEN OF COURSE I WILL DUMP NETFLIX TOO.

I dropped Netflix when the upped my bill by 60% and, to my astonishment, I discovered that life goes on.

Someone in Netflix is making some bad business decisions that is affecting their revenue stream. If it continues I can see them losing more and more customers.

They have "The IT Crowd" on netflix. Watch that and stop complaining about Netflix.

it appears the amount of devices depends on the amount of discs out at a time you have. unlimited streaming, unlimited streaming +1 disc, or limited streaming is 1 device. unlimited streaming + 2 discs, is 2 devices. unlimited streaming + 3 discs is 3 devices, etc.

The Department of Justice filed to block the merger of AT&T and T-Mobile because less competition would cause price increases. Netflix, during a RECESSION!!!!! institutes a 60 PERCENT!!!!!!!!11 price increase in service because even though they are THE DOMINANT PLAYER in the market WITHOUT EQUAL COMPETITION they don't think they are MAKING ENOUGH MONEY and the DOJ is SILENT? I think AT&T needs to step up on those presidential re-election donations.
