I love my Netflix. I don't have any strong feelings for or against Amazon specifically, but I am afraid of some company buying out Netflix and turning it into crap.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Seriously, we don't need to be merging the few options for movie streaming.

I agree.... NO MERGER.... Let Netflix do what they do best and let'em continue....

I hope it doesn't happen, but if, by combining, they can get their movies for cheaper from the studios and pass the lower prices to us, it could be a win. But that's just wishful thinking.

Mergers seem for the most part *BAD* for the consumer in the longrun. Prices may seem fair and even generous at 1st, but service usually takes a dive (Mergers are mostly about profit no?, so they're gonna cut *something* or make shortcuts somewhere to get more money.) and the prices begin creeping up as time goes by (Esp. if there aren't enough competitors at the same level.).

I say NO NO and NO! We need more smaller companies, not larger ones that go belly up and take a wide range of services from the consumers in one swoop.

Netflix povides a premium service at a price that no one can compete with, the unlimited streaming and cheap rentals(including blu-ray)isn't matched by anyone. I tell everyone who rents more than 3 movies a month and has internet access to check them out. It is one of the few companies that I feel confident to indorse. I can't imagine how this could possible turn out good for the consumer.
