I can't say this any more clearly: the promise is irrelevant. Netflix now provides a lower level of service than they used to -- we agree on that, right? When service degrades, people may find that their threshold of satisfaction lies between the service levels -- we agree on that, right? That is the end of my assessment. All other considerations are irrelevant.
If Netflix reduced their catalog to only Batman movies and Season 2 of He-Haw, would you argue that people shouldn't complain because the contract doesn't guarantee any particular movies? Seriously, would you say that? I doubt it because that would be crazy. The service guarantees are irrelevant, the question is what service is actually delivered, and if the service level drops then how do people feel about it.
Less service leads to lower satisfaction; end of analysis.
