While the comic nerds seem happy about this, I hope you jackasses realize that Fox pulled it's content from NetFlix about the same time Disney decided to opt out of their deal with NetFlix. So instead of having Fox and Disney/ABC content on NetFlix for the $10 a month you're already paying, you'll soon have to pay $5-$15 a month to access this same content from a separate Disney service. But Wolverine might throw a punch at Tony Stark one day so it will all be worth it.

But in effect, it seems you're implying business can't do what they want so that we can have proper viewing options on Netflix? Netflix is going to have to A) Find some other set of content B) Lower Prices or alter packages C) Do something else

As a company, they should be nimble enough to do this. it does stink for streaming, however, I think we're in the middle of things settling into place. Maybe for the next 5-10 years things will be slightly annoying (It already is with Netflix vs. Hulu), but eventually it will settle, the market can't support users paying for 3-4 streaming services on average right now, so it will correct itself.
