Netflix--oh wait, I'm sorry, Qwikster

When Netflix changed the pricing structure, I wasn't annoyed. I understood that the business model is changing and they needed to separate the streaming part of their business.

Okay, well, now Netflix has managed to piss me off. You're going to make me go to two different websites to see if something is available on disc or instantly? Fuck you.

It's especially weird, because with Starz refusing to re-up, come February, the size of the streaming catalogue is going to plummet.

They want to keep the budgets separate, fine, but why *on earth* would you make I harder for customers to use your services when you know your value as a service is going to drop.

And why would you rebrand it "Qwikster"? Why not rebrand it "Netflix Home" or "Netflix Classic" or something?
