I noticed the other day all of a sudden the vast majority of movies on my Netflix list switched from "available now" to "short wait." Many weren't particularly popular either. I was surprised to see such an abrupt change. I was hoping it was a fluke and in a few hours it would return to normal but several days later, it has not. Of 56 movies on my list, 22 are available. A few days ago I would say 45 were available.
So all of a sudden, has the world acquired my movie rental tastes?
Has Netflix sold off a load of movies to keep solvent or going throughsome other sort of reorganization?
Has it had an onslaught of new members?
Did a bunch of people suddenly acquire DVD players before Christmas and start renting?
Has anyone else noticed the change?
What is truth?
