The core issue for me is that of the dozen or so shows and movies I would be interested in watching, on average 0.5 are available via netflix. So I spend a lot of time searching in futility for that show or movie I half remember wanting to see. During that search netflix is trying to recommend a bunch of other things to me and I find it annoying and distracting.

Also, could somebody somehow post a schedule of show/movie availability? Shows get added or removed on a regular basis and I always find out by accident.

(e.g. "Oxryly1! We do NOT have 'Guardians of the Galaxy' at the moment. We expect to add it in 4 months time. Thank you.")

</rant> indeed.

Some websites have this information (such as http://whatsonnetflixnow.blogspot.com/)

Thank you for the that link... that's pretty much what I'm looking for.
