+1 stick it to the man.
This is called "stealing". Why don't you just go into Best Buy and stick the Dvd's you want in your purse? It is the same thing.

Not to mention the hordes of customers they lost due to throttling, lousy streaming options when there are better options elsewhere, splitting their DVD-by-mail service from their streaming service, etc. Might be affecting their ability to function the way they used to.
Amazon prime streaming is not much better, btw. And Netflix does have the advantage of the Wii connection that amazon hasn't added yet. (Anyone in the know here? Are they ever going to offer a Wii interface?)

I don't read the business pages, so didn't know about this. But when PP mentioned a deal with Disney, I thought OH! That's why we've been able to get higher quality kids movies lately! I wonder if this deal has anything to do with recent changes at all...
