Campaign to make them pull their ads from a talk show

There probably should be some mention of the social media campaign to make Netflix stop advertising on the Rush Limbaugh show, but the section I deleted was hopeless. --Uncle Ed (talk) 05:38, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

eMusic Linkage

The eMusic "what links to this" has netflix, yet I cannot find the link back to eMusic on the netflix article. has this since been deleted? Mynewdomicile (talk) 11:45, 15 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Out of date

Looks like this article isn't updated (or possibly even read) very much. There's nothing in there about the reported reversal 10-Oct-2011, NYT of Netflix's splitting their online and DVD-rental services. Also, the wording in the second para under Netflix#Internet_video_streaming discusses service plans, in the present tense, with a source dated Jan. 2008. I'll fix a bit, but this needs attention from someone familiar with the evolution of Netfix over the last few years, as well as developments since the 2011 NYT article. regards, Middle 8 (talk) 22:29, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Spell Checked
