I was always so proud that I don't watch "regular" tv. I save a considerable amount of money annually compared to those I know who have cable with all the bells and whistles. I prefer to limit what I watch to shows I really enjoy, hence I am a Netflix subscriber.
Now Netflix has gone and nearly doubled their monthly rate. What's a girl to do? It is still a bargain over cable, but still, the idea that they are so driven by greed irks me. So many people in this poor economy left cable to go to Netflix. Also, Netflix picked up the sinking Blockbuster customers. They did so well over this year so far, there is just no way they should have raised their rates.
Needless to say, I'm disappointed, but for now my plan of action is to stick with Hulu, which is free for now and I'll probably keep a sharp I peeled for a Netflix replacement. I plan to go down fighting.
