Fact: course syllabi are updated no more than once every 20 years.

“Netflix is an American entertainment company founded by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph on August 29, 1997. ”

Theory checks out.

Final Exam: Nov. 17

“Actually on the first day of class, I’m going to tell you it’s actually Nov. 11th, but I’ll never update the syllabus or calendar online, so when you miss it I’m going to insist it’s still entirely your fault.”

amazingly the first people Netflix tried to sell themselves to were blockbuster and according to some they were laughed out of the room.

Might have to do digital “rentals” if you don’t just pirate them.

I’m continually surprised how many older movies are only available for renting digitally and not available on Hulu, Netflix, Vudu, etc.

I think they may plan on you doing the “ethical” thing especially if that’s where you want your future to lie. Also there are still several ways to rent movies.

I’m not surprised, I’m a tad angered by it. Why is it they can be $3-$7 at Walmart but nearly $4 to rent online?!

They should just update it to pirate.
