Deep in the terms of service is now a
disclaimer that to be fair, light users get preference to heavy users and a
distribution center has a limit to the number of shipments and heavy users
can be pushed to the next day. These ARE limits, fair or not. If you have
artificially determined limits it seems unfair to advertise UNLIMITED
service.
Again, I am a happy and satisfied Netflix user and see the lawsuit as a
loser for Netflix users and a big gain for the lawyers. I just see the
reason some users object to the UNLIMITED claims made in Netflix
advertising.
I was an early adopter of Netflix <surprise, NOT> before they had a
Cleveland mail drop &/or distribution center & I was pleased even tho
they've changed their pricing scheme 6 or 7 times while I was with
them. I was even pleased even when they acquired a Cleveland center
but as luck would have it I had to drop their service for a while &
when I returned then I was displeased as I apparently got labeled a
heavy user even tho I was NOT. I was lucky to get 2 disks per week in
05 even tho I've always been subscribed at the 4 at once level. I
could understand an extra day when mailings were coming out of LA or
Atlanta but from Cleveland? Yikes, I could drive the darned thing
there faster. My point is that I was happy prior to the class action
suit & I'm not afterwards so I have dropped their service
again. OBTW I have opted in on the suit & have yet to hear back from
Netflix so I don't know what's up with that.
