Netflix Expiring And New Videos

If you're planning to watch any Starz videos on Netflix, you better do it soon. Starz contract with Netflix expires on Feb 28th.
Starz statement:

When the agreement expires on February 28, 2012, Starz will cease to distribute its content on the Netflix streaming platform. This decision is a result of our strategy to protect the premium nature of our brand by preserving the appropriate pricing and packaging of our exclusive and highly valuable content.

I was looking at the videos coming soon to Netflix, and I noticed a large block of music concert and documentaries available starting March first.
Here's just one of many I'm looking forward to:
Jethro Tull: Live at Montreux 2003

Also, Queen, Charlie Daniels, Ted Nugent and Deep Purple, just to name a few.
I think it's time to get the sound system pumped up - My puny little built in TV speakers will melt with the kind of volume I'll be streaming!

I'm not surprised by the Starz decision. I would anticipate more premium sites will make similar moves. They need to do something to keep folks paying for their service.
