Netflix raising prices

Re: Netflix raising prices
I thought I was pretty clear, but I guess I should have spelled that out more. The $1 isn't a concern, it's the lack of concern for customer service in communicating it. It's not on the same scale as the disc/streaming split, but it shows the same out-of-touch attitude the company did during that fiasco. Back then, I probably would have kept both services for awhile if they had communicated and handled it better, but the way they handled it (rushed, like this) was very poor so I dropped for awhile. Hell, even my cable company is courteous enough to give me a few months notice before making changes.
I'm not dropping over the $1, but this is another small strike against Netflix's image in my book. Maybe I have a different view/perception on some issues because of what I do for a living.
