Netflix Introduces New Plans and Announces Price Changes
beginning of the backlash
Thousands threaten to quit Netflix
I think its total BS. If they do go through with the change, they better offer everything they have on their instant que. Because half the shit I really want to see now is only available on hard copy DVDs. Im not saying I cant find anything browsing the instant que on my xbox, but I sure do see "DVD only a lot when I search for something that comes to mind.
Dear Richard,
We are separating unlimited DVDs by mail and unlimited streaming into two separate plans to better reflect the costs of each. Now our members have a choice: a streaming only plan, a DVD only plan, or both.
Your current $9.99 a month membership for unlimited streaming and unlimited DVDs will be split into 2 distinct plans:
Plan 1: Unlimited Streaming (no DVDs) for $7.99 a month
Plan 2: Unlimited DVDs, 1 out at-a-time (no streaming) for $7.99 a month
Your price for getting both of these plans will be $15.98 a month ($7.99 + $7.99). You don't need to do anything to continue your memberships for both unlimited streaming and unlimited DVDs.
These prices will start for charges on or after September 1, 2011.
You can easily change or cancel your unlimited streaming plan, unlimited DVD plan, or both, by going to the Plan Change page in Your Account.
We realize you have many choices for home entertainment, and we thank you for your business. As always, if you have questions, please feel free to call us at...
