about Netflixation
last updated 12.18.2010
Netflixation is a blog site about Netflix's internet streaming & DVD/Blu-ray rental-by-mail business, its stock NFLX, internet TV technology, and related businesses that compete with or enable Netflix internet streaming.
Instant Streaming
It's the greatest thing since the introduction of HDTV. How can you resist the ability to pick from Netflix's selection of 20,000 movies and TV programming and instantly stream to your HDTV, gaming console, Blu-ray Disc player, iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, PC or Mac for on-demand viewing? You can stream as much as you'd like for only $7.99/month.
DVD/Blu-ray Rental-by-Mail Service
As good a value as Netflix's instant streaming service, you will want the DVD rentals-by-mail plans starting at $9.99/mo for 1 DVD at-a-time so you can choose from Netflix's 100,000 DVD titles. Then, if you are a home theater buff, nothing can beat the picture and sound quality of Blu-ray Disc. For an additional $2/month, you can rent one Blu-ray Disc movies at-a-time by mail. If you don't know what we're talking about, give Netflix a free try for one month.
The Stock (Nasdaq ticket symbol NFLX)
If it's not obvious, we are bullish on Netflix: the business. We are also bullish on internet TV in general, and technology related to internet streaming.
Related Businesses
As great as Netflix is doing. It is not the only game in town. In the internet streaming business, Hulu.com, VUDU.com, Amazon Video on Demand, and Blockbuster On-Line are competitors in this market segment. And content is king.
In the DVD/Blu-ray Disc rental market, Netflix competes with long-time competitor Blockbuster by Mail and relative newbies such as RedBox kiosks.
About Us: Who Are We?
A team of part-time Netflix instant streaming junkies and rehabilitated junkies who seek partial satisfaction of their Netflixation through this blog:
- Mr. Netflixation: Founder of this blog. When he is not working at his day job as manager at a Fortune 500 company, or watching movies on Blu-ray Disc or Netflix streaming on his dedicated home theater, he runs and contributes to this blog.
- Mrs. Netflixation (a.k.a. Mrs. Netflix Junkie): Wife to Mr. Netflixation, she is a hopeless Netflix Junkie. She streams movies via Netflix day/night, whenever she is not working at her day job or doing her motherly or wifely duties.
- Dr. Netlix Anonymous: Our resident Netflix Anonymous Support Group leader. If you are a Netflix streaming addict, consult his Netflix Anonymous blogs for support. He offers hope that there is indeed life outside of Netflix internet streaming. It has been 72 hours since his last Netflix internet streaming experience. Let's hope the doctor can keep it together and not fall off the Netflix streaming sobriety wagon.
We hope that you will find this blog informative and occasionally humorous. Enjoy!
