It was cute when Netflix was only producing a few serial tv shows, but if we're headed to a world where you NEED Netflix to get access to premium content, then I'm not supportive of this future.

How is that different from any other premium content provider?

Everyone else syndicates and usually only controls a small market. HBO is only in a few countries, for example, and all of their content ends up accessible in other areas. You can buy all of it from iTunes!
