It’s quite the bummer for Netflix subscribers, first they get hit with the price change earlier this year, and then Netflix can’t work out a deal with Starz. I mean it is good that they are adding closed captioning, and some Academy Award winning movies. I still don’t know if what they are doing can compare to what they have lost now, but it does make me happier that I dropped Netflix back when the price change went into affect. Since I work at DISH I figured I would give the Blockbuster @home plan a shot, and it has actually made me happy that I did. Although Netflix keeps helping add that value, because I like streaming and renting DVD’s so the price is much better, and now I still have all those on demands Starz movies and shows that I have grown accustom to.
