So I'll go from $0 to $0. Damn.

Its nice they are doing this for New Customers only and they are promising more content from it. It's a shame that this has prob mainly come from Netflix having to throw money at Comcast in the states after they started throttling their service.

Edit: deleted as I'd look less stupid and not like I haven't read the article.

They need to reduce the price in the UK, not put it up. US Netflix viewers get a much, much better deal compared to UK.

Hola.

Problem is it is P2P thing, might want to not have it installed on anything improtant.

I alternate between UK and US netflix, US isn't out right better - it's just got a different library

It is pretty lopsided in favour of the US. See this site for comparison.

They obviously need a cash injection after reporting a massive increase in profits...

I'm toying with the idea of dropping Netflix, there's not much that I want to watch on there in terms of films, and the series I don't have time to get into...

I actually really rate Netflix, and have no intentions of cancelling. It offers a lot of stuff I want to watch:

Justified
Sons of Anarchy
Continuum
Grimm

and NO adverts. At all. Ever.

That's one reason I refuse to subscribe to Sky. You pay a fortune to them every month to get the content and they STILL bombard you with adverts every 15 mins or so.
