Netflix Limits Blu-ray Disc
Dear Gary:
I thought Widescreen Review might want to do a deeper dive into Netflix and their growing inability to supply Blu-ray Discs to their subscribers. Based on a recent discussion with their customer service department, it seems that the providers of these discs are limiting the number of Blu-ray Discs being provided to Netflix in order to drive direct sales.
I think you agree that inflated pricing on Blu-ray Discs and HD DVD discs act as an anchor to development of the market for the media. Limiting availability through Netflix might be yet another ill-conceived tactic to boost software sales, with the result of discouraging adoption.
