That weakens their service. Maybe I'm stuck in my ways but the idea of Netflix original movies doesn't really appeal to me. I think some of their original TV shows have been hit and miss. In reality how many Netflix original movies can they churn out in a 6 month period, and will they be better quality than the movies they are dumping?

I can see myself becoming a Netflix "dipper". Not using their service for months and months, allowing them to build up content, then subscribing for 1 month to splurge through it all. Then let them build up new content over a period of a few months then dip in again.

My mate dips in and out of Netflix and Amazon Instant Video. He takes each service month about. So he has Netflix for a month, cancels it, then takes Amazon Instant for a month etc.... He says it saves him money yet he manages to watch everything he wants from both services. Very tight but saves him £80.00 per year.
