Rarely. I got into the Netflix habit. If you mean movies that Amazon has made, then never.

"alot" is not a real word. "A" and "lot" are two separate words. The confusion for people who mistakenly use this non-word is the word "allot" which does not mean a large quantity, but means to apportion. Please keep "a" and "lot" separate. Correct grammar matters.

Wow! On Ugly Hedgehog? Actually, if it matters, spell checker catches this every time I use alot but I don't care. I like it. I also like helpful critiques on photography on this site. Not grammer.

I learned a long time ago that language has to be a living thing or it will die (ever wonder why we dont speak Latin?) Some of the changes are confusing or obnoxious (or worse), but I can adapt if I learn the new meaning of the words. Its all about context. The progress of humanity isnt a straaight line thing, while good grammar is important, so is the nature of change. We no longer speak anything that resembles the "King's English" and I say we're better for it. Yes, this forum is about PHOTOGRAPHY, not grammar school.

They seem to be changing their customer base--I have no idea if that is a good business decision or not. I am, like many of you, getting ready to drop Netflix because of the lack of choice in movies. I have almost no interest in their original programing but I assume they are trying to become a television station rather than a distributer of movies. Too bad as it's a PITA to have to find another source of movies but it's getting harder and harder to find anything to watch.

All companies have raised their prices due to the increased royalties all the copyright owners have demanded. My Sirius/XM subscription includes a sizable surcharge for the copyright owners that did not exist a few years ago.

I like most of the Netflix productions. Longmire is one of my favorites.

we saw the same thing from HBO years ago. Most of their original programing seemed to be raunchy stuff for the younger folks. I've tried Netflix's original stuff, most of it is garbage.

For all you folks take a look at Kodi. Free and once you download it you can get everything that's on TV and all the movies you want even the latest. You can even get sports from all over the country. To learn more go to U-Tube....Rich

This sounds like bad news for Netflix watchers. They have been making more of their own original content and offering less from studios. They once had 11,000 movies, but now they're down to about 5,000. Sure, that's a lot, but with many of them being one-star throwaways, our choices are limited.
