This just goes to show the greed of copyright holders. They look at the data of how many people enjoyed their programming on Netflix and use that as a basis for wanting more $$$. Don't they realize it's a two-way street? Netflix has a broad viewer base because of their price point. If they had to charge everyone $20 or...more

Netflix needs to stream games, not just movies, and they need to do it first. The next big thing for gamers is a monthly fee that let's them stream whatever game they want and play it through their consoles using the Netflix interface.

I myself am a Torrent user and have downloaded tons of stuff. I also pay to go to almost every decent movie made at the theaters, even those over-priced 3D movies that make you pay 3-4 bucks for 10 cent glasses.

Do you honestly think stuff would be that cheap if they had high end salaries? I used to work for W...more

For those of you that said overcrowding is not an issue, obviously you've never been to Hong Kong, Mexico City, or New Delhi. Those studies that say the whole world's population can fit into Atlanta, Georgia or Dallas Texas, don't take into consideration that if everyone lived in a 2' square area, they would all die.

I do feel the economy is partly to blame for GM's downfall, but this outcome was only being prolonged if the economy had been in better shape. They screwed up in three major areas that I can see.

I'm very glad to see that the judge upheld his ruling. I have several friends that have been in trouble for a DUI, one lost his license for a year and 30 days in jail for the first offense, one had to go mandatory drug and alcohol treatment as well as spend 45 days in the slammer, and I have a cousin that got 15 days i...more
