Netflix Woes Mean a Gap In Shipments

Posted by timothy on from the oxygen-delivery-plans-on-hold dept.

Loopback writes "It appears that I'm not the only one waiting for my NetFlix movies. It seems they are being bitten in the rear by their home-grown proprietary inventory management system. 'Netflix has been facing shipping delays and outages in its distribution centers for the last two days and is fumbling to find a fix. The tab is roughly $1.8 million to $3.6 million in revenue a day.'"

  1. Not impressed by my trial. by MikeFM · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Sounds like the reason I've been disappointed in my trial membership. I'm planning on canceling because why pay if they can't get me movies at a reasonable rate. I'll go back to the RedBox.

    At what price learning? At what cost wisdom? The price is a man's peace of mind, and the cost is his life.

      You do that. You sound like a whiner, which will only hinder my service.
