10 bucks is nothing. Even if its 20 to include DVDs its still nothing.

U really should compare it to the cost of cable with premium movie channels instead of how cheap netfllix was at the beginning. With Hollywood video AND blockbusters gone, tell me you wouldn't raise your price if you owned the company?

It's not that simple though. There are other choices that they risk losing clientele. A price hike could hurt what marketshare that they have gained since the last fiasco.

We do not have cable but have netflix and are mostly happy with it. We mostly watch series of shows and they have a lot of those. We also use Vulu for movies. If the price goes up but they start adding more movies/shows I would be happy.

Not that simple? Theyve already gone from 5.99 a month for dvd and streaming to 6.99 a piece. Thats already double the old price. No reason they cant raise the price as their only competitor is redbox and hulu if its for NEW CUSTOMERS. The split and price increase last time was a huge deal because a service that most people werent using was taken away. Thats the dvd in the mail option unless you paid for it separately

After reading the link that West posted the whole thing sounds like good old corporate greed and customer gouging to me.

I'm more or less happy with it. Cancelled my Uverse TV service a while back and still saving $70 a month just using netflix and the free hulu...
Might get hulu plus someday but having a hard enough time trying to watch all my series from the start on netflix, lol
