So, am I allowed to sue Netflix if I can't afford to be a subscriber? What if I only like a genre of movies that isn't available on Netflix? I understand the need to have subtitles and in an ideal world, everything would come with them, but this seems a bit too much.

The important distinction is that being poor or disliking Lost are not considered disabilities per the Americans with Disabilities Act. That law attempts to guarantee that anyone who is disabled has equal access to, among other things, the entertainment available to those without. I think your point is that it is a somewhat arbitrary to grant this group of people this right of equal access compared to the two other groups you mentioned, which certainly has some merit. But, that's the law, and Netflix should have to follow it the same way the entire television industry does.
