Isn't Netflix awesome? For £5.99/$8.99 a month you can access to a massive library of TV shows to watch whenever and wherever you feel. There's Breaking Bad, Archer, Sherlock, Mad Men and so, so much more, along with their in-house shows, House Of Cards and Orange Is The New Black. Brilliant! If you're using it for movies, however, it's a totally different picture. If you wanted you could ditch conventional TV in favour of Netflix, but you certainly couldn't with films. What's on offer is certainly impressive compared to what can fit in one person's DVD collection, but as a central hub for cinema it just doesn't cut it (particularly in the UK); The Godfather but no Part II; no Marvel movies except Iron Man 2; a ridiculously high number of Asylum knock-offs? No thank you. As each film requires a licensing deal with the distributor, naturally not every film ever could be on the site, at least as the current market stands (although we'd pay through the nose for that service). It's just important customers are aware about this before making it a one-stop shop for cinema; soon they'll be thinking the extent of Robin William's career is Popeye and Hook. What can you do: Use Netflix as a supplementary service. If you really fancy seeing a film, go buy the DVD.
