Been a Netflix subscriber since the early days. Talking getting DVDs in the mail, 3 at a time, watching all sorts of crazy shit, back when they let you have a profile where you could personally 5-star rate and even leave a review for movies you'd watched. Me and a friend got competitive about it, would watch movies all the time, rate and review them, we easily had lists into the 800-1000 range.
Then they deleted all of it with no warning.
But I kept with it, because although I pirate a lot, I still like the convenience of not having to download all the stuff on there, and there's still some decent releases. And I share my account with my ex-wife, so she doesn't have to pay for it. And then when I'm on vacation, usually there's a smart TV or whatever and I can log on to keep watching whatever series I happen to be on at the moment (right now it's Stargate SG1).
But the other day I got a warning about how I'm using a different device, and I had to double authenticate and reenter passwords to "allow" me to watch from my personal computer... and it made my blood boil. Shut the FUCK UP netflix, you dumb mother fucker. I'll watch the service I fucking PAY FOR, on my OWN FUCKING DEVICE, WHENEVER I FUCKING WANT TO.
One more blood boiling moment and I'll just cancel their bullshit all together. I have a gig internet connection, I can just download shit crazy fast, I don't fucking need you anymore netflix. you forget that the slight convenience of not downloading things is the ONLY reason you exist. Stop being convenient, stop being used.
