If this Digital Rights Management is how Netflix treats its customers, we ought
to be content to not give Netflix our money.
At least, that's how I feel.
I also remember, before installing the popup blocker in (Mozilla) Seamonkey, a
Netflix window would pop up on top of the web page I was viewing: very
annoying. That deterred me from wanting anything to do with Netflix.
On the subject of Silverlight and Moonlight, I remember that for a time,
freefilefillableforms.com required Silverlight for using their site to prepare
their forms for e-filing U.S. income tax returns. Then it was Adobe Flash.
Now I don't know.
