Because dcurtis holds Netflix stock ... So he wants it to happen ... So saying it is very likely to happen makes it seem more plausible increasing the value of his investment if others believe the hype and buy.

This is the American Airlines website of financial analysis blog posts IMO.

Exactly. There is ZERO chance that Apple will buy Netflix. Netflix is a dying company, and their business model isn't long-term viable. They don't own their own content, and the content providers are not only charging them more, but building their own infrastructures. Apple already has iTunes and plenty of deals with content providers. Why on earth would they get Netflix which has a worse business model? It's just plain garbage.

This is a great example of "talking your book".
