Schmudos to Netflix

Last week I gave kudos to Netflix for seemingly un-throttling my account. This week they get schmudos. The class-action suit against them has been revised to automatically turn off after the month of expanded service has ended. The former settlement left the expanded service "on." This is a good and important change to the settlement. Schmudos because the subject line for the email message from Netflix reads:

***SPAM*** Amendment to Class Action Settlement. New Chance to Get Class Benefit.

So it's sure to go directly to your spam filter-enabled trash.

Schmudos, also, because one of the links to the settlement sign up page in the message is dead. Here's the correct link:
