I Stopped Paying for Netflix and Now I Can't Watch Movies, RIPOFF!

So I've paid for Netflix for an entire year! I've invested so much time into Orange is the New Black and House of Cards, I even grinded every episode of Friends last month! Now, I log in today and all of it is gone! I can't even watch movies that I have been able to watch for a full year! I don't get it. I've been a loyal customer for a year, and just because I stopped paying, I get locked out of content. Well I wont be giving them my business anymore, scammers.[spoiler]Do you get it now?[/spoiler] EDIT 1: I seem to be getting a lot of similar replies, usually directed at claiming Destiny is not a "subscription" service and that we the players "own" the game. I'm sorry boys and girls, we do not own anything. We paid for a liscence to access Destiny's content; content which is subject to change or even be removed for those who don't update their liscence. This was all outlined in the EULA you blindly accepted a year ago. EDIT 2: "LIMITED USE LICENSE: Bungie grants you the non-exclusive, personal, non-transferable, limited right and license to install and use one copy of this Program solely for your non-commercial use. All rights not specifically granted are reserved by Bungie. The Program is licensed, not sold, for your use. Your license confers no title or ownership in this Program, and should not be construed as a sale of any rights in this Program." EDIT 3: Jesus this is still going, this is fantastic. It looks like the verdict is roughly about 50/50 on people agreeing with me, or calling me some derivative of the word retard. To each their own I guess. I'd hope you guys get this worked up when Norton Antivirus tries to charge you for updates, and then removes features when you don't pay. Because, you know, you bought a disk, so you're clearly entitled.

  • I bought A Link To The Past when it first come out. I stopped paying £40 the second I bought it. And they haven't locked me out of content? OP, better call Shigsy, tell him your story of how you stopped paying for Netflix so he can fix this. On another note, here's how you brain: Destiny is no longer available. The game you bought a year ago, (albeit frustratingly) no longer exists. What you now own (sans The Taken King) is essentially a platform for a new game to use. Without this, The Taken King will not work, but without the The Taken King, Destiny will not work as anything more than a foundation. This is because the servers are no longer for Destiny. They are for Destiny: The Taken King. They however, cannot permanently lock original content as new players will not know the original story, and we still require the original content for new content to work. They have, however, locked what they can (original weapons, random events such as the Blades of Crota and the Pack of Wolves) as these aren't anything to do with The Taken King. Simply as possible put, Destiny is done, it's over, it's like The Matrix Online. They no longer support an old game. They now only support a new game, using the old Destiny servers for Destiny: The Taken King. In a year, this will happen again with Destiny: Insert Title Here. This will happen again, and again for the next 9 years. And we will have to pay up to £80 a year, which broken down monthly can be assumed as the average subscription fee. Now, a way to get around this is to wait until Year 10 and get it all at a very low price (and miss out on all the previous content that they can, and WILL, lock out) or pay this pseudo-subscription fee. And you, know as long as this method works, they'll just keep throwing DLC on top of what we already own instead of releasing a new game (Destiny 2) which is not dependant on previous software being installed and will run on servers alongside Destiny: The Taken King instead of ending up a 300GB game using the same servers as it's previous iteration, locking outdated content ads they go. Now, I bet Netflix doesn't do that. Netflix will run content forever until THEIR licences on content run out and can no longer show it. Oh, and I suggest you pay your Netflix subscription or start pirating stuff.
