price... Netflix doesn't flinch
12/24/2004 12:10 PMNetflix declines Blockbuster's latest invitation for a price war. Is
Blockbuster's latest move a desperate attempt to gain a foothold in
the online DVD rental arena - even though it may gut their traditional
rental and in-store subscription service?

In The Broadband Battle Between Speed

In The Broadband Battle Between Speed
And Price, Customers Choose Price
12/09/2003 03:39 PMBack in October we noted that DSL and cable providers were trying to
differe
ntiate themselves from each other. The DSL providers were
focusing on being the low cost provider, while the cable guys wanted
to be the high speed providers. At the time, we pointed out that this
was likely to backfire on the cable companies. People like the speed
of broadband, but for most applications there's a "good enough" speed
- and many people want it more for the always on connection than the
speed itself. It's looking like we were right. The latest study
shows that, despite cable's commanding lead in the US,
many
more people are signing up for DSL these days because of the lower
price. It's the basic "good enough" argument. What DSL offers is
good enough for what most people want to do with their connections
now. Also, the speed difference is minimal right now. You don't get
that much faster speeds with cable, and there's not much you can
currently do with that extra bandwidth. It used to be that people
would sign up so they could download songs, but the music industry is
cracking down on that enough that it's become less of a draw for many
subscribers as well.

02/01/2005 09:33 PMI thought it was just me not opening them carefully enough over the
last week or two, but apparently not. The internet is great. I wonder
if Netflix appreciates how great the Hacking Netflix site is for them
even if it's also writing about the Bad Stuff. You'd think it'd be
really old news by now, but maybe not. (Actually, knowing other
corporations a bit from the inside I'd say certainly not ... sigh)...
Netflix + TiVo: Done
Netflix + TiVo: Done
09/07/2004 03:08 AM
Back in January, we had discussed that coming convergence of TV and
movies in the video-on-demand space and discussed the somewhat obvious
connection of
TiVo +
Netflix. It appears that the management of both of those
companies has figured it out as well, as Newsweek has the "high level
sources" rumor mill spinning about
TiVo and
Netflix teaming up to offer a combined movies-on-demand service.
While the details aren't there, this does make a lot of sense for both
companies, who each need to differentiate themselves from the growing
competition within their space. Both have built up great brand names,
and extraordinarily loyal followings, but are now facing strong
competition from more established players with huge wallets. A
combined solution that let users download movies directly to their
TiVo (and, even better, take them "on the go" with TiVoToGo) has
tremendous potential and would keep them a step ahead of the
competition for now. Still, it remains to be seen exactly how they
implement this solution. If it's not done well, it could be damaging
to the reputation of both companies, while taking attention away from
their existing solutions. It's also unclear if there will be
exclusivity in this relationship, or if both players will be able to
team up with others as well.

for 30 days didn't entirely work, I've been TV free for a couple
months now--ever since I moved into the new place. I even sold my Tivo
to someone at work. As a result I've had more spare time but have
occasionally been looking for some entertainment. No problem. I have a

Netflix RSS feeds?
Netflix RSS feeds?
05/31/2004 10:12 AM
Watching movies in the age of the Internet is way different.
Now I can look something up after watching a movie, like for example,
did you know how many future stars were in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest?
It's pretty amazing. Scatman Crothers, Danny DeVito, Christopher
Lloyd.
Last night I went to see
Troy with a friend, a perfectly awf
ul movie. So much for the theory that I like everything. This one
just goes on and on. At one point the camera focuses on an old man who
at first looks like he might be Peter O'Toole. Oh good, we'll have
some real acting now, I
said to myself. But on closer examination, it's just a sad old man,
not O'Toole. And the acting continues to be absolutely terrible. The
best moments are when Brad Pitt preens, looking beautiful. And that's
pretty bad. Anyway on getting home I looked up some reviews, and hold on, that was Peter O'Toole. Holy
hanna. He's aged so poorly, and has become a really shitty actor (or
is it really shitty direction). Either way, a shame.
It seems that Netflix
would be just the kind of network service to give me an RSS feed I can
subscribe to, where they would give me interesting articles about
movies I just saw, or ones I'm about to see, or movies playing near my
house that I would probably like, movies my friends liked, etc etc.
They already do a bunch of stuff like that on their site, so why not
do it in a feed?
Also, did I write this just so I could include a picture of a youngish Jack Nicholson?
I'm not telling.

03/19/2005 03:23 AMI just heard a
Netflix ad on
the Radio that trumpets its ability to ship your selections in one
day. That is true. It does take one day. The problem
is that the rest of the service has been substantially degraded.
Here's how:
- It now takes two days for returns to arrive at the Netflix
processing center (it used to take one).
- It takes a day to process your selection at the facility after it
recieves the return (it used to be same-day).
- Saturday processing and shipments have been terminated (they used
to provide this).
- Lost, damaged, or wrong reports take a day to process (it used to
send you a replacement or your next selection on the same day you
report).
- Popular movies are almost impossible to get in the first month of
their release. Cult movies are impossible to get.
If I was an investor in Netflix, I would take these actions as a
sell signal. I can't recommend the service to my friends and
family anymore.
