This newest news about Netflix "flogging," err, I mean "throttling" its frequent users really hits home. We changed our queue at the end of last week, but they'd already pulled the flicks that were at the top of the list. However, we didn't get one of those movies until the middle of this week and didn't receive Suicide Club until TODAY. We waited a whole week, even though the distribution center is in Tacoma and we'd been getting movies within a day previously. I guess they found us to be using their service too much.
Fiscally, their policy it makes sense, but something tells me it will be bad for PR. I know we're pissed, and I suspect many others are as well.

What really got to me was that the first time I saw this rediculous policy in action was immediatly after I upgraded the account, precicely to let me watch more movies over winter break. Turned out, they didn't appreciate my extra cash enough to actually send more movies! That is, I could have "three at a time," but within a week the turnaround time was four days longer than it had been!
Bastards.
I'm not pissed enough to deprive myself of video-store-free movies, though...
