Funny, I don’t remember writing to them – but I guess I must have. Netflix just emailed me to say that their popular profiles feature which creates virtual queues for different people in your house are not going to be discontinued after all as they had originally announced back on June 19.

For users of Profiles, I have good news to report: we will keep the feature with no plans to discontinue it.

We were persuaded by the well-reasoned, sincere responses of loyal members who very much value this feature. As someone who enjoys helping his four-year-old daughter manage her one-DVD-at-a-time, G-rated sub-account, I identified with these thoughtful pleas to maintain Profiles.
