If you accept the upgraded account, you will be put on that upgraded plan at the end of your free month

So you're mad at Netflix because the lawyers suing them ended up with a crap settlement?

I know you don't hate big business on principle, because you didn't jump on the (pretty easy) anti-Walmart train.

I'm assuming that Netflix has a free trial month with automatic enlistment thing that's also making you mad, because it seems a reach otherwise.

Again, I have no problem with automatic enlistment because, as with the other companies that do it, they don't pretend it's not there.

I still don't understand why it makes them the bad guys.

If they had automatic enlistment that signed me up from scratch, I'd be pissed. This way? It just means I have to pay attention. Again, not a crime. It's not obscure, complicated, or rare.

You know that's Hec's book, right?

I'm not trying to present netflix as criminals. The class-action suit they lost stated pretty clearly that their actions were not criminal, only inequitable, and that reparations were due. Their lawyer was slick enough to make those reparations quite in Netflix' favor.

The rest is up to you.

She should - she had me sign a copy for a gift.

I do! I actually got it for my sister's (now ex, though still friendly) boyfriend. I even got it signed for him. Before wrapping it I paged through it a bit, and decided I wanted one- so clearly I can't delete that. I already had to delete the Bubblegum book which made me sad.

Heh. X-post.

Get 'em while you can. Our publisher is going to pulp half his back stock of the Bubblegum book. But he won't remainder them for some twisted reason. shrugs

But you said "They are Bad Guys."

Brenda & Daisy, hang out for a bit. I need your expert feedback on something...

Noooooooo. I can't add more to the list! The idea is to remove things.

Maybe my dad will remember my birthday this year, and I can tell him another gift certificate to Amazon for $14 will do nicely.

(beaming at the praise of my H:LOTS evangelism) H:LOTS spent that entire year and a bit under constant threat of cancellation. Fans owe a huge debt to both Robin Williams and his deep bond with director Barry Levinson for that because the only reason there was more after Season 2 was that BL asked Robin to do the last season 2 ep "Bop Gun" and Robin said yes, because he would do anything for BL.(I love that episode because Kay's got a great scene in it and because it's so messy and morally complicated.) So they were able to wave something shiny in front of the suits and say "Look! Celebrity guest star!" And it was good. A lot of people hate that one though...I'm constantly defending it, but by RW standards I'd say the emoting is right where it should be...the first seasons are my favorites because those are true stories.And I like the old fat guys.(I don't mean porn.) But they look like detectives. Most detectives are probably Crosettis and Bolanders.ETA: And you're probably thinking "Damn, bunk, Jehovah's Witnesses probably take one day off!" But you did know the story about the woman with the niece who wouldn't die and all the insurance on her family was true, right? Including the part where they autopsy the wrong man and don't find out till after? And the part where her nephew also thinks he's her husband?
