I find it really frustrating that I often find new releases on DVD are often Long Wait or Very Long Wait. I’ve tried moving DVDs up in my queue as soon as they have a release date up but it never seems to work. Then again, I have been a long time customer and I remember hearing that Netflix will sometimes purposely slow the queues of long-time or infrequent users.

Okay, so I have used the Netflix service and before it was really good quality and my videos would be clear. But now they are HORRIBLE. And i Have a 100.0 Mbps internet connection speed and it should look good. SO whats wrong? How do I improve the quality of the movies?

About Me
I don’t know…….. I wish they would put more on the watch instantly list………..
I am sure there is no conspiracy! They get what they can depending on the owners of the rights of the movies!
It all comes down to whats going to make them the biggest profit in the end. They have to figure how much they will have to pay to let you watch a movie and if it will generate enough business to justify the expence.
I don’t know about getting the permission part, but my guess would be that they pick movies that aren’t extremely popular so that they can make you wait for the better ones to arrive in the mail (in other words, so they can milk your wallet). At the same time they exclude the really obscure or bad ones so that the whole application isn’t pointless.
That’s my guess.
It’s in Netflix best interest to have as many movies available on their watch instantly list as possible. But it’s not always up to Netflix, it’s often up to the studio.When studios license their films for TV, cable, Video-on-demand or internet, they can put limitations on how long it can stay on each service. For example if you search for movies on Hulu, some movies have an date and some say expire never. What is likely with the first Matrix movie, is that since it came out before the Netflix watch instantly service was available someone has exclusive rights to it for a certain period of time and it can’t go on Netflix Watch Instantly until that time has expired. Since The Matrix is on I-Tunes, I would suspect that I-Tunes has the license for this title at this time. Licensing deals are written differently now since services like Netflix Watch Instantly, Vudu, and Hulu are more popular. The major studios are now licensing just about any major DVD releases to Netflix and and I-Tunes for streaming or download, but I-Tunes usually gets it first because they pay for the exclusivity.
