I think its likely they will sell Qwikster off in a year or so. Thats why they are splitting them

it does appear that way, or at least they are trying to distance themselves from that market. however, what major strides in content

I'm not passing judgement until time has passed because the move was for the future and everybody has been wrong about netflix in the past

that's true. but the market is correcting itself based on the judgement of the masses.

I still think it comes down to coersion from the providers, for separate services. Bad name. I guess QuickFlix and QwikFlix were taken.

yes, i can see that. and the name is horrible. Mailflix would have been good.

I don't fault Netflix for the business decisions of hiking prices and splitting the DVDbymail off from Streaming, but the tone-deaf blog
