  2. Netflix Customers Are Furious At Drastic Price Increase

    Netflix announced on their blog on Tuesday, July 12th that they plan to do away with their combined unlimited streaming and DVD by mail plans and increase pricing by 60%.  Of course, they tried to spin it as a positive solution for their customers.

    “First, we are launching new DVD only plans. These plans offer our lowest prices ever for unlimited DVDs – only $7.99 a month for our 1 DVD out at-a-time plan and $11.99 a month for our 2 DVDs out at-a-time plan. By offering our lowest prices ever, we hope to provide great value to our current and future DVDs by mail members."

    Now, as a Netflix customer myself and TV Lift Cabinet Owner, this paragraph clearly did not make sense to me.  Offering their lowest prices ever?  Um…how do you figure?

    Let’s recap shall we.  Currently, Netflix customers enjoy an unlimited streaming plan for only $7.99 (which has not changed on their new price structure).  However, if Netflix customers wish to get DVDs by mail, they can at only a $2 increase

  4. Last Harry Potter movie premieres this week!

    Have you gotten your movie tickets yet for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows – Part 2?  J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter novels have been entertaining families across the world since 1997 and movies for ten years.  Now, the last movie of the Harry Potter series is being premiered this week in the United States.

    The grand finale is bittersweet for those who have been following the cast of Harry Potter for these last ten years.  On the one hand folks are excited to finally seen Harry Potter (played by Daniel Radcliffe) take on the evil Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes) head to head.  We have been waiting patiently for Harry Potter to grow up and finally revenge his parents’ murder.  We have also been waiting for Ron’s (Rupert Grint) and Hermione’s (Emma Watson) love story to unfold.  I am told this comes to fruition in this last movie.  However as much as we wish to see the great battle and love story between Hermione and Ron, there is still a part of us who will be sad to say goodbye

  5. Pyeongchang, South Korea to Host 2018 Winter Olympics

    The International Olympic Committee announced today that Pyeongchang, South Korea will host the 2018 Winter Olympic Games. This will be the first Winter Games held in Asia outside of Japan.  Koreans celebrated the news with fireworks displays around a newly constructed ski jump in Pyeongchang. There have been two previous attempts to bring the Olympic Games to Pyeongchang –losing to Vancouver, Canada followed by Sochi, Russia four years later.

    The motto for these games, “New Horizons”, reflects the 20 years that Asia has gone without hosting the Winter Olympics. The massive population and potential fan base for winter sports was an important factor in Pyeongchang’s bid. South Korea has spent billions of dollars updating infrastructure and preparing for the possibility of hosting the games. For rights to broadcast the games to your TV lift cabinet, NBC shelled out a whopping $963 million! Pyeongchang beat out Munich and Annecy, France at an International Olympic Committee’s 123rd Session

  6. Hulu on Track to Reach One Million Subscribers by Summer’s End

    Internet streaming service, Hulu, is on track to reach 1 million Hulu Plus subscribers by the end of the summer.  The company initially predicted that this milestone would be achieved by year’s end – putting it months ahead of schedule.

    Hulu offers free streaming TV shows while Hulu Plus offers a wider array of content for $7.99 per month. Hulu Plus is not only available online but many gaming consoles such as Xbox and DVR boxes are capable of streaming Hulu Plus content to your TV lift cabinet. Although the unexpected upturn in subscribers is encouraging, obstacles still remain. Cable and satellites providers are hesitant to pay excessive sums for programming that can be obtained for free online, thus putting intense pressure on Hulu executives.

    Working with a similar model is Netflix, Hulu’s largest competitor. In comparison, Netflix has over 20 million paying subscribers and recently announced plans to extend their service to Central America and the Caribbean.

  9. New 2011 Design Trend: Trunks, Trunks, and more Trunks…

    In the past year, the classic voyager trunk has inspired furniture companies across the United States.  Trunk designs have taken on new life in the form of coffee tables, cabinets, night stands and even TV lift cabinets!

    The voyager trunk design brings vintage sophistication to the modern day living room. In the last few months leather, metal, wooden, and wicker trunk designs have surfaced online and in store locations.  The demand for these trunk inspired designs is so high that companies such as Restoration Hardware, Pottery Barn, and Pier 1 Imports all have created dedicated pages specifically for their trunk collections.  Clearly, the public has spoken and determined that this is what they want.
