a pox on netflix

Tagged as:

For my July 2007 Netflix outage thoughts complain about it here.

i haven't been renting a lot from Netflix lately. Lately, I've been sitting on DVDs for long stretches of time. Sometimes weeks. I've been watching tv series on DVD that I can't watch at home because I don't have cable. A month or so ago I rented the first season of Rome (great show) and now I'm finishing up Showtime's Weeds (not too bad.)

So today I mailed back Weeds disc one and I just logged into my Netflix queue to change the order of my list (I think I have Stargate season 8 at the top but don't really want to see that) and I'm greeted with:

The Netflix web site is temporarily unavailable due to scheduled maintenance.
It is anticipated that the site will be available again at 2:00 AM Pacific time.
We apologize for any inconvenience this causes you.
Please visit us again soon.

This happened a few weeks ago (about three rentals).

I guess It'll be Stargate this weekend.
