I was just adding to my que to watch tonight. Nothing on broadcast or cable that appeals to me.

and for the third time this year.

Amazon agreed to host Borders' online business and a couple of months later there was no Borders.

Could amazon be having "outages" just as it's building a competitor to Netflix?

(And you people think WalMart is evil...)

This is the sort of thing that makes me not want to ever use Amazon.

I didn't know if it was our WiFi router, Crime-Warner Cable, or something else.
Now I know.
*We had replaced our TV and bought one with a Netflix application.
