Did you read the article? I stopped when it started on wild speculation about future deals, but there were two execs quoted. Time Warner's CEO claims that Netflix is eating their lunch, and has not only cut off access to new releases but raised prices for library titles.

The unnamed Disney exec is glad to have an additional market for their library titles. They sound a good bit more clued in than anyone here is giving them credit for. (Though they clearly are fighting tooth and nail to keep consumers from realizing how poor the existing distribution channels are.)



I did. Like I said, shows you who is in the know, and who isn't. Some are good, some are bad. I'm not childish enough to think that they're all completely stupid/evil.
