    They tried to buy the rights to continue Firefly awhile back.


    Holy ballsacks. I'm not much of a Whedon fan. But if Netflix were to do that, they'd get more Internet goodwill than early era Google.

    You can change. You can.
    @INUH: what format are/were they planning on going for? Series? Films? Serials?

    Well, I think (though this is just speculation based on the Firefly offer) they were planning on starting with streaming series roughly equivalent to TV shows.

    Hmm, most interesting. Thing is that pretty much cuts up the middle man.

    Not sure if I approve.

    Eh, the middleman's not doing anything useful.

    Basically, film producing companies could skip the distribution studios and go to Netflix. So the studios wouldn't make bank for the DVD sales which in some cases is the bulk of a film's total gross.

    CRIMINAL SCUM!
    Well fuck that. I'm done with my subscription. I was considering it for awhile since the streaming selection is crap and I can't find many dvds I want to watch. But this is the final straw.

    I'll just pirate the new movies that come out and I want to watch.

    So long as video stores, Pay-per-view, redbox, and those knock-off streaming companies still exist they technically don't have a monopoly.

    In any case, I don't think this is that big a deal. Times are tough. Netflix is a luxury.
