Well, went to check my Netflix account and saw that the sites down, spoke with someone over at Netflix and they told me the problem occured during routine maintenance of the site.
They are also unsure when the site will be back up and did not tell me exactly what happened. I have been told however movies should be delivered with no problem, but they did not clearly state whether or not returned movies will be noted to your account and a queued movies will sent out today.
Netflix is the number one online DVD rental service with plans starting at $4.99 a month.
