Netflix Blames Trash-Talking Partners For Content Worries, Says Per Member Viewing Up 30 Percent

netflix_logoIn its latest earnings report, Netflix addresses the seemingly constant concerns that it's losing out on valuable streaming content as its partners start pushing for more money. For example, the company recently cut about 800 hours of programming from A&E and History, and its deal with Epix is no longer exclusive. However, Netflix points out that among the top 10 TV shows, six are available only on Netflix, and not Hulu, Amazon Prime Instant Video, or HBO Go. The company also points to two numbers suggesting that customer's are still happy with the service ? per-member viewing is up 30 percent year-over-year, reaching a record high, and that voluntary churn, where users cancel the service (versus involuntary churn, where a credit/debit card payment is declined), is "generally the lowest it as always been."
