Probably because it was a terrible idea.

They need to stop postponing instant watch to boost dvd rentals. Pisses me off sometimes.

yeah, qwikster wasn't their wisest idea so it's good they ended it before it actually happened and caused some real damage. Adding video games was a good idea, and helps keep up with redbox, but splitting into two entities was creating too much complication. Yeah the price was still going to be the same between the two but still, two bills, two sites, too much hassle. People turn to netflix for simplicity and convenience and they need to remember that and keep it simple

What I find funny is that they admitted it wasn't a good idea but want to go through with it anyways. Glad they changed their minds. Games now you say? I may have to cancel gamefly then.

Games = good idea, if they cost less than gamefly! I thought gamefly was BS cause you can get a $60 game and return it to gamestop for $25-30 in credit, and that would cover the gamefly bill, cause how many great games are a must play per month anyways? Especially this year? about 1 every 2 months or so... Sooooooooo if netflix does this games thing for under $20 then I'll look into it.
