When Netflix originally struck their deal with Starz with the online streaming, they got it cheap. WAY cheap. Starz figured this out after the deal was cut, and I think it was a 5 year contract, and Netflix knows then that's up Starz ain't gonna give it away anymore. I think Netflix is upping the ante over time cause they know when the contact is up, they're gonna have to really jack up prices -- or instant streaming is going away.
