I'm not quite sure what's all going on over at Netflix. The once-promising and -lucrative company seems to be flailing about, making stupid decision after stupid decision.
First there was the price hike that caused its subscribers to drop significantly, followed by the splitting up of the business into two entities (DVD and streaming), which would require you to log into two Web sites and have two separate accounts. Today, however, CEO Reed Hastings saw the light and realized this wasn't exactly a good idea, so Qwikster has been shelved, and everything is back under one umbrella.
Makes you wonder what they're going to pull out of their hat next.
