It seems I can't read anything any more without it somehow delving into politics and Obama. The first reader comment on the story (when I read it) was how Obama also hired actors to get his healthcare bill through. GAH!! They should make PolitiBlock software for when you just want to surf without political influence. I guess I could just not read comments...but I love comments!

I should be mad at Neflix for this, but I'm so happy with their service that it really doesn't bother me much.

I'm only half joking. It's a terrible business practice and people should be outraged. It isn't going to keep me from using their service though.

I think every business has some form of dirty trick that they use somewhere.

Eh, who cares, really. I bet they all (companies) do something like this sometimes. If I like something I like it. No matter how awesome somebody tells me something is for them, I won't get it unless I want to get it.

This is such a nonevent. It was a slow news day last week.
