netflix rumored to be acquired

[posterboy]

in a day of a 2% dip of the stock market, netflix gained almost 6% because there are rumors that amazon is going to buy it out.

crazy stuff...i don't think it's a good move for amazon.

It might not matter. No less, it was confusing to read.

Wow, they're on an acquiring spree. They recently acquired dpreview.com too.

I love Amazon, and I love Netflix.. so no qualms here.

I'm still waiting for NetFlix's view movies online feature that was supposed to be available in May (beta tested in Feb and March to only a few). This probably means it will be delayed again. :|:|:|:|

Much to my surprise, when I logged onto my Netflix account I now have this option. (I didn't have it when they first launched it.)

I browsed through the movies available and there are some decent titles in there, but I don't see the point in sitting in front of my PC watching it. This might work for people who run their computers as part of their home entertainment centers though. I have no clue how high the video quality is.

It depends on your bandwidth. Lower end broadband speeds will yield something like a badly encoded divx. If you're on the higher end of the specturm then it's like vhs. I didn't try it in full screen cause I know it'll probably look like crap though. Also I think it's only 2 channel stereo sound.

That just zoomed right over your head, didn't it?

Interesting. Hopefully they won't charge shipping for dvd's <$25.
