Thousands of movies will be removed from Netflix in the US after the streaming service decided not to renew a deal with distributor Epix.

Removed titles will include the Hunger Games and Transformers movies.

Netflix, which has more than 60 million subscribers worldwide, said it wanted to focus on exclusive content.
...
Explaining the move to subscribers, Netflix's chief content officer Ted Sarandos wrote: "While many of these movies are popular, they are also widely available on cable and other subscription platforms at the same time as they are on Netflix and subject to the same drawn out licensing periods."

Will this change in their library make you more or less likely to subscribe, or continue to subscribe?

    I may not know much about AC, but I do know AC does not have teen / tween children.

    Yup that's pretty much my living room movie viewing experience.

    Next time you want to watch something, just let me know, I can send over a couple kids to "improve" your experience.
