Split formats!

"FWIW, Netflix has just added Battlestar Galactica: Season 4: "Razor Parts 1 & 2" as a separate IW entry. Hopefully that'll solve any problems."

"HULU PLUS PEOPLE.  Sorry to say it but the missing episode is on there.  Use your free one week trial to watch the missing netflix stuff.  Its an absolute joke and almost deserving of a class action law suit.  I am not a sue…"

"Frack! I wouldn't be surprised if that messes up on "devices". I've watched the first 3 seasons, so Razor was next in line for me. I guess I'll give it a try today or tomorrow and see what happens on my Roku."

"Well, there's something really weird going on there, I'll grant you that.  True, I haven't watched BG, but I did just go to the ep in question to check it out.  As soon as it starts, it indicates it's 87 min.…"

"Apologies to both Knalds and thatboy BUT I did watch the all of the episodes. As I said in my initial post, Season 4, Episode 1 ends in a cliffhanger. That NEVER gets resolved as Season 4 picks up with Episode 3, with NO resolution to the…"

"Good work, Knalds!  I've seen that happen on other series, and it was exactly what you describe."

Knaldskalle replied to JediWoman's discussion 'Split formats!'
"Erhm, when I look at it, it seems to be Netflix' usual sloppy approach to describing their content accurately: If you look at the runtimes, you'll see that "Razor" has a runtime of 87 minutes, while the remaining…"

"As to my original question/comment... I can only go by what I heard from the Customer Service Rep... but the episode in question apparently was in their streaming video lineup. Neither the Rep nor her Supervisor could figure out why it was made…"

Spindaddydad replied to JediWoman's discussion 'Split formats!'
"Then, sounds like you now have an answer to your original question and a full understanding of why some series are split between streaming and disc. Because of unavailable streaming rights, not cost, and not bait/switch. And yes, the more streaming…"

"Or at rates that you would consider paying. Hint: much more than 8 bucks a month. Once again, many thanks for your points. It isn't a matter of consideration. I am on a fixed income now; it comes down to what I can afford. I no longer have…"

"Thank you, good point, but I would add something to your statement: Netflix is unable to get some episodes/seasons of a series at rates that Netflix would consider profitable.  At some point Netflix will have to make some decisions if they…"

JediWoman replied to Nick's discussion 'Disparity between availability on DVD service and streaming'
"I absolutely agree with you!! The thing is, I own lots of the older stuff already. I love black and white movies, esp. horror movies starring Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, et al. I watched ebay rather carefully and managed to snag many (legal) movie…"

Spindaddydad replied to JediWoman's discussion 'Split formats!'
"Netflix is unable to get some episodes/seasons of a series dues to licensing rights for that particular episode for streaming. Usually has to do with music rights. They do not have to get the rights to offer it on DVD."

JediWoman replied to Nick's discussion 'Disparity between availability on DVD service and streaming'
"Wow! Only 20? I think that more than 2/3 of my DVD list was not available on streaming. The selection is terrible to say the least. But I can truly say I cannot afford to do both. I keep hearing that Netflix wants to phase out their DVD format. If…"

"You're Welcome. I was surprised that I was able to add it in a larger sized movie viewer. You ever wonder how many oddball families and little groups there are out there. Maybe it's better that we never find out."
