• [By Rick Munarriz]

  There has been little -- outside of perhaps the late May departure of popular Viacom (NASDAQ: VIA  ) content -- to push customers out the door. Unlike cable and satellite television companies with their annual increases, Netflix isn't budging from $7.99 a month. The economy has improved. After losing SpongeBob SquarePants, Dora the Explorer, and South Park in the Viacom purge, Netflix has bounced back with even more content.
