Why has Netflix gotten greedy?


I've greatly enjoyed renting DVD's from Netflix.com on occasion. But I don't have time to watch 4 movies a month (I like to get family and friends together to watch, and NONE OF US can spare that much time every month). I watch broadcast TV, and I go to movies in the theater. AND I LISTEN TO A HELLUVA LOT OF MUSIC on my stereo. The $16 per month "Marquee Program" is just a gimmick to get all of us who've enjoyed renting periodically to pay a flat rate every month, like cable or DSS. They're now closing their business to those of us who would rent 4 or 5 movies at times when we had the time to watch, and then go 2 or 3 months without renting any. THIS IS CONSPICUOUS SCREWING OF THE CONSUMER, and I say: IS THERE ANOTHER GOOD PLACE ONLINE TO RENT DVD'S?? There definitely should be...

Yo Carl,if you are going to wine thru 9 replys mix some humor in there.Hire a writer if nesc.I never rented on line,but the store I rent from has changed some of the "spiffs" they used to have(rent2/3rd free)(used to be mon-thurs) I'm sure they have their share of inconciderates,scratch the discs,late returns,NO return at all,on and on.I guess living in a place where I have great renter choices I'm lucky.I spent an hr.or so reading an exchange you were in couple of days ago;and FUNNY!better than some movies I've rented(a lot of) I've only been at audiogon 1 wk today,aint watched any tv in (Lakers excepted)that time.I've died and gone to heaven And it is free.We got a great base of dif.opinions, dif knowledge levels.Ive bought a piece,and sold some cables already.Have offered what help I could 10,or more times. seen any of my replys?Don't forget the humor:this is fun,'audios' till next time
