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.

They killed their competition in movie rental. But now it seems like they're taking that hard-earned juggernaut status and chucking it and I don't know why. And since they've been so damn effective for so long, it's not like there's even a viable alternative should they die from self-inflicted wounds, which is starting to look likely. There simply isn't another place with their selection and their recommendation engine, at any price. So I don't know what I'm going to do when they bite it.
