Dear Netflix...

October 6, 2011
By Jessica Bass

Dear Netflix, I just wanted to thank you for having an app for streaming video. I can now be lazy and productive at the same time. 

You see, I'm trying to get into the Marine Corps, but I can't seem to stay very long in the gym. Lifting things up and putting them back down gets a little boring. When I went to the gym this weekend, I was able to stay for over 2 whole hours. Why? Because I was running uphill on the treadmill while using your app for my iPhone. I lost 900+ calories while simultaneously being lazy and watching tv. I didn't have to watch the channels the gym provides; I paused and rewound when I wanted to; I took my tv show from machine to machine. It was great.

Now I can spend hours and hours at the gym. I'll never get bored. And I'll totally forget how badly my muscles are aching!

Sincerely,
Jessica

Nice blog, Jessica!

We love Netflix at our house and mostly use them through XBox Live! I'm going to have to check out their app ... the HBO GO app is really cool too.
