Netflix Raises Prices

So ,Netflix raised their prices and the world is coming to an end. They raised it by 4$ and people are outraged but they shouldn't. i know most people will be due to the fact that they are cheep , but i remember a time when you could go to a video store and rent a movie and you rented that movie and another one and another one and so on. Then came netflix unlimited rentals for one low price. they gave you several options. then came streaming. then they added streaming to the dvds. well some people just wanted streaming not dvds. others wanted dvds and not streaming. so netflix came up with a plan. and that plan came out. and now people are pulling their hair out. see netflix has a great model. and people like it , the studios?. not so much. netflix is like a scene in the warriors. the warriors are trying to get back to coney island , and they come across another gang and the gang lets them by. then a woman from the neighborhood comes by and tells the local gang that their chicken for letting the warriors pass like that . then the leader from the local gang decides he wants something more from the warriors. the warriors freak out and start running. Netflix is the warriors , Hollywood is the local gang and blogs and wall st. are the woman that lives in the same area as the local gang. netflix is a big company and they are going to pay for content to bring us , better content , better quality , wide selection of titles , and maybe just maybe day and date on new dvd releases. so right now 4$ may seem high , then don't do it. but if it something you love seeing there is always a blockbuster around and you can go back to paying 6$ a title or be that loser that bit torrents. i love that poster on sites that brags about bit torrents chuck. its on free over the air t.v. asshole. just be home mondays at 8. loser.
