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.'"

    The only story here is Netflix honors it's obligations. I think very highly of Netflix for this. Now if I could only figure out why the went with M$oft for XBOX360 movies. They are free if you have the Roku player but to do the EXACT same thing with the Xbox 360 you have to PAY M$OFT for the gold online account.
