"Watch Instantly" selection getting slimmer and slimmer

[Jennifer]

I've noticed that when we first joined Netflix they had a fairly good amount of decent movies to view under watch instantly. It seems that their selection, in my opinion, keeps getting crummier and crummier. This is discouraging because we use our Netflix account instead of cable right now. Anyone have any thoughts? I'm not even sure how they acquire the movies to watch instantly. Maybe its a problem not with them, but gaining rights to make them available instantly?

Then I'm a snob :)

You are right I have noticed that the titles seem to change. My kids like to watch cartoons and the selection has gotten worse. They like veggie tales, Hermie and Clifford there is only one of each now where there used to be several of each.

actually the instant view is alot better than it was 2 yrs ago. now i have a hard time to keep from hitting 500 mark and i have to take some off to make room for others, and according to feed fliks were fixing to get alot of good stuff coming

bones,deadzone,firefly,dresden files, xfiles,buffy,a bunch of veggietales, and madeline for the kiddies, 24 there seemed to be a pretty good list , unless of course feedfliks isnt very reliable, so far the only one that didnt come up on instant view like it suppose it here comes peter rabbit it stated it was suppose to come on instant view march23 but hasnt as of yet

Get outta here with that positive talk. This here discussion is for complaining! ;)


Wait a minute, feedfliks is a llpof, Dresden Files isn't on IW. That's a good show, hope it does get on IW soon.
