Blockbuster Shuts Down Netflix

Oh noes, Netflixers. If you try to access the Netflix site you’re prompted with this message. What does it all mean? The update times keep changing. I know their subscriber base has tapered off and Blockbuster is muscling in, but please don’t shut down, Netflix. I loves you and your wide variety of DVDs. Hehe. They’re not shutting down, but it does seem to be taking a long time to update the site for a simple price change. Ah crap, the time just changed from 9AM to 11AM.

What’s the bet they don’t use the same daft headline tactic when the Apple Store closes for a couple of hours?

Actually, there was a huge power outage in SF. Several website based in that area are down. Craigslist and Netflix are two notable ones.
