I thought they were on big growth curve. What is the reason do you think?

Netflix' collection is shrinking as content owners revoke their permissions and seek to monetize their libraries by cutting deals directly with ISPs or using their own distribution channels (for example "HBO To Go"). Netflix has become a glorified middle man and now that digital downloads are displacing physically mailed DVDs, they no longer have a market advantage.

Netflix will go the way of BlockBuster.

Not seeing it... their big issues along those lines are the copyright holders' restrictions on where media can be played. I don't see any real benefit for them in accepting them. Plus, with Bitcoin, they have no good way to auto-debit your monthly fee. Maybe if they moved much further in the direction of producing their own content...

On the other hand, Youtube has been rumored to be thinking of creating subscription channels. Accepting Bitcoin could be a significant help for them if they did, since it would allow them to charge subscribers and pay producers in any country with minimal hassle.

Bitcoins for stolen movies would probably win over Netflix for bitcoins.

Doubtful, since TPB still handles that for free Tongue

Netflix is dying, they will be gone in a few years. Or maybe 10 years.

Really? Didn't know that, I thought they were on big growth curve. What is the reason do you think?

That's be pretty neat, but I don't see why BTC would be of any large benefit to Netflix in the way that Reddit and Wordpress does, i.e. anonymity and freedom of speech.

Netflix will be the next one

My Prediction: After Wordpress, Reddit, (Classycams) and Namecheap, Netflix will be the next one.

I own rights for this one  Tongue
