I adore Netflix. I’ve given up cable altogether because of it until just very recently that I got a great deal on some basic channels, which worked fine for me but it’s especially great for my siblings and Mexican novelas-watching parents.
And now Netflix wants to be a part of that bundle. I’m all for all-in-one concepts, they tend to work in unity and do an efficient job, but it doesn’t work all the time.
I have had horrible past experiences working with cable. Canceling one package or service can completely change the whole scheme and sometimes I’m the one who ends up paying for “changes” that occurred. I think that’s what Netflix will be like if it becomes a part of cable, a hassle to get rid of.
I like the fact that I can cancel or even put on hold it when I’m going away or I just can’t pay for that current month; it’s how things should be, fast and easy and cable is definitely not any of those things.
