As a lot of you may know, Netflix recently announced that the prices are going to go up. For unlimited streaming you will pay $7.99, and same for unlimited DVD rentals. If you want unlimited both, you will have to pay $15.98.
A lot of you are thinking, "WTF NETFLIX?!?" Well here is what they are doing. Netflix over the years has been putting many DVD rental businesses out of business. They thought, "Let's make our prices really low, so that way people will forget DVD rentals, and come to us." Now with those companies out of the way, Netflix can raise it's prices. It is believed in the next few years prices may double or even triple what they are now. There will be other companies that do the same thing, such as Hulu.
There is your explanation
Hope it cleared up some confusion as to why they felt it was necessary to almost double their prices. Do you think this is fair?

8 more dollars a month...big whoop. I pay extra for blu-ray & 2 movies a time & you don't see me complaining. Netflix has always been dirt cheap.
8 dollars derp, they're gonna lose all their customers O: oh nooooosss!
:dumb: The money is going partly to an expanded streaming library.

What's the point in that...?
With two, you can watch one, put it in the mail, watch the other the next day, put it in the mail, then you get one in your mailbox the next afternoon...and so on.
But I only watch about 2 or 3 a week.

I just thought it was funny with everyone complaining, Most of the movies on the instant stream are terrible movies or really old.
