I watch a goodly percentage of my content through Netflix instant, and I actively avoid the Starz provided content. It's never in HD, and even for that the quality varies from middling to almost poor. I've watched a couple of things from Starz, but mostly it's because I didn't notice until I had my heart set on watching it.
So, I don't really care if Netflix loses this. I hope it lets them be more aggressive at doing new deals to get movies.
- mbreese 15y agoI hope that this frees up some more capital for them to do direct deals with production houses (like their Lionsgate deal). I know that Sony already bolted from Netflix (via Starz), but perhaps directly dealing with the studios (and more money) will help Netflix start to get more current movies faster.
- wmf 15y agoI kept getting my hopes up by seeing decent movies listed on Netflix, only to then realize that they're low (visual) quality Starz movies. Good riddance.
