You can’t buy what people are not selling. Netflix has no choice but to try to become the HBO of the future. I hope they succeed. House of Cards is great. Netflix is so cheap I’d have no problem paying them monthly for what they have now plus more original content.

Except it is wrong and the proper way to say it is with a soft g and has been since the beginning of the web. A hard g sound makes you sound foolish.

It’s been soft g since the days when you needed to worry about “web safe” color pallets because not everyone had more than 256 color graphics.

No one pronounces it with a hard G sound. I’ve never heard that ever. It is always with the soft g “jif.”

Is this a regional thing or something? I’m in the Seattle area.

LOL, I love the idea that you’d have to pull out your phone, and open the Glass swipe app to be able to save yourself the supposed trouble of looking at your phone. Bravo Google! Bravo!

Yeah, Amazon should take lessons. Their original content isn’t in the same league. Netflix is directly competing with HBO. Amazon’s new shows seem like they are competing with unproduced youtube content.
