How many dotTechies subscribe to Netflix or some other online on-demand video and movie website (for those of you that aren’t in counties Netflix operates in)? If you subscribe to Netflix or a similar website, then you probably will agree with the following comic. I know I do. Check it out:

    Netflix isn’t the best for movies. They’ve been more geared towards TV shows. It was extremely frustrating at first until we found shows we liked. With everything from “How it’s made” to the dreaded “Barney” they’ve got a pretty wide selection. I do wish they’d get movies sooner than they do though.

    @JT:

    TV shows is my main use of Netflix as well. They have a nice selection of old shows I watched in the 70s and 80s in addition to recent shows I may not have seen.

    @JT: @Seamus McSeamus: @Strahd: My friends, you are taking this too seriously. The point isn’t Netflix is bad for movies and good for TV shows. This is a joke. xD

    I laughed when I saw it. Not a Netflix user but I*know* if given the choice to see everything they offer, I would spend a lot of time to find just the right movie or show!

    It’s true that streaming Netflix lacks many of the better movies. But the mail-order service has everything.
