I don't get the Netflix hate, I really don't. They've been undercharging for a long time now, and while they're expanding servers, making a lot of new contracts, bringing in subtitled anime as well as dubbed (which needed negotiations), adding hard of hearing subtitles on their ever-growing instant queue ...
Man, I am glad they're raising their prices. Now it's more likely they'll have the money to improve their servers and ensure the service doesn't crash and burn. $15 a month seems totally reasonable to me, we watch about eight or so movies a month from them (and that's not counting the DVDs they send) and it's a lot cheaper than a movie ticket. We'll be getting rid of the DVD thing only because we barely use it and we could do with saving the money, but I guess I really don't understand the outcry I'm seeing from people.
