Shit-flix

Well, Netflix sure stepped into something brown and stinky when they announced they are eliminating separate profiles. I've never heard of a company in the day and age of social networks like Facebook, Digg, My Space, etc would decide "HEY, why don't we GO AWAY from what people like and go to something people loathe! Let's make everyone as homogeneous and vanilla as possible in the age of unique and individual...Brilliant!"

The ironic thing is that they HEAVILY advertise on Podcasts of the USERS that will be the most pissed off and most vocal as a result of this plan. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face!

Netflix will lose this customer on Sept 1 unless they change their mind or come up with a suitable alternative to what they're getting rid of...
