I thought that this was an interesting article that CNET posted earlier today talking about Netflix’s horrific 2011 and basically, who’s to blame for it all…
I don’t really have anything new to say that I didn’t already say when the last of the debacles played itself out last fall. According to the article, apparently the CEO thought that he was being forward thinking by trying to secure Netflix’s future in the world of streaming, but it just seems asinine to be so eager to throw 10 years of hard work to the wolves for such an uncertain proposal. It’s amazing to me how such a series of poor choices took this amazing Internet success story and just drove them into the ground to the point where I’ll honestly be surprised if Netflix is even still around 5 years from now.
Oops, indeed! 😯
