Netflix down for 4 days?

[alanp]

I sent my old movies back about this time last week and still haven't gotten new ones.  Are anyone of you having trouble?  They are having huge problems with the shipping system?

I read this in the news today... something happened to the computer systems of Netflix.. supposedly it was down for two days but everything seems to be working now.

Here's the snippit I found on Slice of Sci fi

All 55 Netflix shipping outlets were hit by a severe technical glitch causing an outage. The Netco online rentailer had trouble sending discs to subscribers several days this week, but was back up a running Thursday night. Netflix will credit the accounts of those affected. Refund amount will be determined by the length of disruption to each customer's service. This is only the second time in the company's long successful history that this has happened. The cause of the snafu is being investigated. The Netflix online website was not affected.

It just delayed shipment of a couple of DVD's for me for about 2 days.  No biggie.  I have used them for several years and they've been nearly perfect.  Things happen and they are going to credit people too.  All seems fine now.

I was reading on the web netflix had an outage.  It cost them millions each day but I think the problem has been resolved.  Slight delay in processing the movie I returned but no delay in shipping the next movie in my que

NetFlix is yesterday. Downloadable High Def. to your TV is the future.

Definitely.  It will make video stores passe.  I have my doubts because I - like many others - do not have a network connection anywhere close to my TV.  My on-demand service from the cable company only requires the DVR.
