Save Netflix!

Netflix is in terrible danger. In fact, these might be its last days.

Oh, not today's Netflix. The Netflix you're using today is fine. It made it—got to do something daring and edgy, prove out its model, and become part of the establishment.

But the next Netflix—the company so cool it makes Netflix look like Blockbuster Video—thatNetflix is practically dead in the water.
 
bad news, but like SOPA and all its successors,

the "fact" that something can be brought for less, than what the big corporates charge, makes them uneasy....

story of the 21 century, lots of things are possible to be sold and marked very cheaply, problem is that would put the big players out of business,
and they now trying their damnedest to fight this, no matter what......
 
Root problem is with DMCA and similar questionable legislations.
