RiffTrax and Netflix
« on: June 17, 2011, 09:22:48 AM »
With over 40 pages of search results on "Netflix" I'm sorry if this brilliant idea has been suggested before. But is there someway you could partner with Netflix? I would pay upwards of $1-2/month if it enabled a "Rifftrax" button to trax'd films. While I'm unwilling to purchase a single title for $4, I would pay $12/year and its likely I would watch 3 or more riffs. I don't know, I'm not a feasibility expert, but surely this is a possibility.

Thoughts?

The issue isn't being able to "partner with NetFlix." The issue is with the studios, and they are pretty much set on not letting people touch their movies.
I work REALLY hard on the site. (Not the forum so much.) I'd love it if you bought me a beer via PayPal!

Welp, instead of starting a new thread, I just resurrected this one as it kinda sorta resembles my topic of discussion..

I've mentioned this before that one of the main reasons I've had Netflix recently is because of RiffTrax. I pretty much have all the movies and tv shows I enjoy already and not a whole lot interests me these days.

Since RiffTrax appears to be shifting more towards ISO VODs and mp4 Shorts and less movie mp3 releases as of late, I'm considering suspending my Netflix account for a while till some newer releases are targeted for riffing..  :-\
