Netflix issuing 10% credit to make amends for downtime?
Netflix junkies the nation over were shot into a tizzy when the outfit's website went down for most of Monday. Apparently the company is looking to make up for any hard feelings created by the downtime by issuing 10-percent credits to customers. We're not certain if it's just users that should have had a title processed Monday or if its customer base at large will benefit, but according to e-mails being sent out to subscribers, 10-percent credits are being applied to accounts for the "inconveniences" caused. So, did you -- loyal Netflix subscriber, you -- get the same notification? If you're not exactly sure what you're looking for in that cesspool of messages called your inbox, click on through to peep the note in full.[Thanks, Kyle]
Netflix site "temporarily unavailable," avid renters beside themselves

Granted, it's not like seeing the above image on its homepage is a frequent occurrence either, and it seems that many renters are at a loss for things to do on a Monday when they can't rearrange their queue. If we recall correctly, the last outage actually spanned close to a day, but here's to hoping you customers won't be forced to wait until Tuesday to fast-track From Justin to Kelly to number one on your list.Update: As of 10:39PM ET (give or take a few minutes), Netflix is back in business. Thanks, Mr Bobby![Thanks to everyone who sent this in]
