I decided to binge Parts I and II last night and tonight. Went to watch it on Netflix since that is better for the producers. Sadly Part I is no longer available on Netflix. This is a disappointment. Many people will want to binge the trilogy. Anybody know how this happened?

    It is so sad that these never were put back on Netflix streaming. A lot of people I know found Atlas and were inspired by the ideas by happening by it on Netflix and the longer it is off there, the more people we are not reaching. I can only tell so many people to watch it, netflix can tell a lot more people then I can.

    Ice Road Truckers. It's getting around that time of year again...I typically stop watching it after March. You should check it out sometime.

    Yeah. I have part II on DVD, I have We the Living on DVD too. Not sure why I don't have part I. Duh.

    This is why I purchase every movie I like. I don't like depending upon streaming content providers or the internet in general. I like to have the movie sitting on my shelf, ready whenever the mood to watch it strikes me.

    The Netflix contract expired. We've reached out asking them to flip the switch back on.

    I always used my Amazon Prime membership to view the movie.

    How it works actually is that the rights and licenses to Atlas Shrugged may have been expired and we would have to obtain the licenses again which may take a while

    "may have been".. is this a guess?

    Our content are always trying to keep our customers up to date and i would love to take a feed back from you and send it to my content team, it was definitely expired

    You
    This is TERRIBLE timing. What can the 'content' team do with my feedback?

    (This conversation is ridiculously slow.)

    Netflix Chantal
    We are a feed back company and we definitely appreciate our customers feed back, they will look into trying to obtain the licenses again because we definitely want our customers to be happy streamers and hopefully we will have it again in the future

    Who determines the when a license expires? How does this work?

    Netflix Chantal
    Great question, it is based on the studio who granted the licenses and the rights owner to a particular tv show or movie, what i can do is to provide you with a link that will provide you with a wealth of information on how we h=get contents

    I dumped Netflix last year. (What the heck happened to my Ice Road Truckers damn it?!) Amazon Prime is your new best friend. Don't be scared.
