Netflix Customers Voice Anger On Facebook After Service Says, "F You, Pay Me!" (PHOTOS)

Thousands of Netflix subscribers voiced their anger and disappointment via Netflix's blog, Twitter and Facebook page after Netflix announced yesterday it will increase customer bills by as much as 60 percent. 

The service announced that it would separate its streaming and DVD rental services, letting users choose if they wanted just one service or both.

The original $9.99 per month plan, which allowed one DVD out at a time and which currently includes unlimited video streaming, will jump to $15.98 under the new price structure. Unlimited streaming or one DVD out at a time will now cost $7.99 each.

At 8:30 p.m., there were some 11,000 comments on Netflix's Facebook page, decrying the price increase.

"I have been a subscriber for years and WILL cancel if rates increase," wrote one customer.

"There is NO way I am absorbing a 50% price increase when, frankly, most of the movies I want to watch are STILL NOT available for streaming," wrote another.  "If nearly all or all of your collection was available for streaming then I could perhaps justify to myself the increased cost, but since that is not the case, no."

The 60 percent price hike will go into effect in September.
