While casting about for ways to economize, and with Mr. Bollywood now off to college, I was considering unsigning myself up for Netflix. I believe I've fallen below the break-even point for movie rentals vis-a-vis the monthly price.
But those clever folks are a step ahead of me. They offer a deal where you can put your account on hold for up to 90 days, preserving your queue and all that. I can see the thinking -- never let go of a customer once you've got 'em. So I can assess whether the dark days of winter will return me to my usual pattern of consuming movies at a great clip, as is likely to happen. And in the meantime, no bridges burned.
