If netflix is raising prices and want more people to go to streaming, they need to put new releases and more content on their streaming service.

I don't believe that's their decision to make unfortunately. The new releases anyway. They really should be offering more content though :p

New arrivals? Bourne I dentity? 2002 The beach 2000. New? New to who?

But even though Netflix's new arrivals leaves something to be desired I still use it daily, I watch a movie a day while walking on the treadmill, fortunately they have hundres of slasher/zombie/horror movies.

LOL! I'm not suggesting movies like those are new, obviously. I'm sure they have their reasons for not streaming those. Perhaps it's due to the company. E.g. Paramount, Lionsgate, etc, etc.

Or netflix doesn't have enough people in their editing department. I'd gladly take on that work. I love video editing :D
