Más detalles
Netflix needs to step up and open up their "Instant Watch" / "Watch Now" feature to the wider world of operating systems and web browsers, or lose those customers to other services.
If you're a Mac OS X user, a Firefox user, a Safari user, a Linux user, a FreeBSD user, a Solaris user, or any of the many perfectly capable operating systems and web browsers on which you could be using "Watch Now" (if only Netflix was brave enough to support open standards), sign this pledge, cancel your Netflix account on August 9th, 2008, and make sure to let Netflix know why!
- $20.00
- pledge $100.00 (one time only) to help build a church for Heritage United Methodist Church in Macon, Georgia
- donate $25 to Artistic Differences Theatre Company

I probably didn't set the deadline far enough in the future. I set it to the date of this year's Linux Picnic (www.linuxpicnic.org).
As I posted in another comment on the Netflix blog on Friday, I've already canceled my Netflix account. I canceled it early after getting pissed off after reading out about this:

You're welcome to set up a new pledge with a more reasonable deadline. You can link to it from the comments of this pledge, and link to it from a new comment attached to the Netflix blog post about Mac/Firefox support:
