In the latest twist in the Netflix saga, the company has backed off a plan to offer a separate service for DVDs under the Qwikster name. Netflix CEO Reed Hastings announced the change Monday on Netflix’s blog, stating, “It is clear that for many of our members two websites would make things more difficult, so we are going to keep Netflix as one place to go for streaming and DVDs. This means no change: one website, one account, one password… in other words, no Qwikster.”Netflix Abandons Qwikster DVD Plan
I’m a graphic designer, blogger, traveler, music fan, movie lover, coffee drinker, tech guy, Christian, married and a few other things. I’m a couple years away from turning 30 and a bit pre-occupied with that at times. I work a lot, but enjoy my time off when it happens. Family is important to me. Friends are too. I like meeting new people. I think burgers are yummy. I went vegan for 30 days once. Might try it for 30 days again this year. I hope to travel to India this year as well. I hope this year is a great one.
