>However, I do see light in buying subscriptions in order to support the creators when I have no easy way of doing so.
I'm not sure there are that many talented creators on Netflix, though I think they were the ones that just struck a deal with Spielberg. Most of the really great creators nowadays are prevented from making stuff that streams a lot. In fact, most of it just goes straight to video obscurity. Hollywood is a really fucked up place, even if part of it is in NYC, Vancouver, or Atlanta.
