When netflix just started out, they only did the DVD's via mail. That was all, and that was enough to get they're service booming :D But then they decided to give the customers something extra, something out of THEY'RE pocket. The didn't charge us another dime, but they offered us another universe of service. Microsoft worked out an exclusive deal with Netflix to only offer it on they're box, shouldn't that have been enough? No, it just wasn't, there just had to be a catch. Somehow, Microsoft when from Chivalrous knight, to con artist :/ Why is it everything they do has to make a profit? It's the prime definition of corporate greed.

Netflix didn't give out shit out of there own pocket: read here http://www.roku.com/netflixplayer/. They have a netflix sponsored box set player that does the same thing the xbox 360 does for $99!!! The xbox live gold membership is half the price of that annually. So no, MS doesn't have an exclusive deal.

You've got the definition wrong in the last line. The prime definition of a company trying to make a profit in everything they do is a corporation.
