It's called on demand it's how these things work. Old content goes new content arrives.
This happens with companies such as Sky and Lovefilm too rights expire. I wouldn't trust anything the Telegraph says anyway. |

Lovefilm do this regularly as well. They just refresh the catalogue with new stuff, so i imagine Netflix will do the same.
Got my 1 year Netflix subscription gift card to activate tomorrow - very happy

Most of the stuff leaving have been there 2 years anyway since the site launched.
Looks like Netflix's deal with Viacom has ended which is why a lot of them are going (MTV, Nickelodeon and Comedy Central shows). |

Maybe have a look and see if you'll miss what is disappearing before being so melodramatic

I would check you have the smart DNS set up properly and working correctly first on your router. |

They do appear to be getting rid of almost their entire stand-up comedy lineup. I suppose it's understandable considering it's probably all Comedy Central stuff. I'd added the Roast of Flavour Flav to my list as it's probably the only one i haven't seen, but it looks like i'd better watch it tonight just to be on the safe side!

And the Americans often complain about how we have better content than they do. Its a simple case of the grass is greener. All Netflix regions have things that other regions would really like while missing things that people in that region would like.
For me personally I prefer Canada over the US and do find it amusing when they complain how rubbish theirs is. Lately though I've been using UK as we've got the latest season of Warehouse 13 which the others don't. |

Even second run rights are tough as Sky buy alot of Archive stuff and they also have Amazon's Lovefilm to compete against |
