Credit: Reuters/Robert Galbraith Fri Sep 2, 2011 9:56am EDT (Reuters) - Shares of Netflix Inc fell 11 percent in early trade on Friday, a day after pay-TV operator Starz Entertainment decided not to renew its contract with the movie-rental company. Starz, controlled by John Malone's Liberty Media, ended talks to renew a deal that expires February 28. After that date, Starz will stop providing its content, which includes exclusive rights to first-run Sony Corp and Walt Disney Co movies, for streaming on Netflix. UBS analyst Brian Fitzgerald who has a "sell" rating on Netflix shares said Thursday's announcement underscores the long-term concern that rising content costs and increasing competition will continue to weigh on the company's stock. Starz might now court another online streaming provider such as Amazon.com Inc or Google Inc's Youtube. However, some analysts were unfazed by the move and were positive on Netflix's prospects to secure alternative deals. Jefferies' Youssef Squali said while Starz will continue to hold the rights to Sony and Disney titles, Netflix could independently strike a deal with the production studios for streaming content. Stifel Nicolaus analyst George Askew, who has a "hold" rating on the company's stock, said the loss of contract could help Netflix in the long term as it could deploy the estimated $300 million fee for future, replacement content. Netflix was offering to pay somewhere in the $200-$300 million range annually for rights to stream Starz content, while the original online streaming rights are believed to have been agreed for around $30 million a year four years ago. "We believe Netflix has seen little overall pushback from subscribers since Sony content was pulled from the service more than two months ago in the related, but separate dispute between Sony and Starz," Squali said. Piper Jaffrey analyst Michael Olson said although Starz provided a "larger" portion of new releases on the Netflix service, its share of overall streaming content declined in the last two years. Shares of the company fell to a two-week low of $207.62 on Nasdaq. They trade at a 12-month forward price-to-earnings multiple of 37.5, according to Starmine data. Competitors Dish Networks, Time Warner Inc and Best Buy trade at multiples of 8.4, 10.4 and 6.9 respectively.

I am fed up with price increases and limited content. Now that Starz has pulled out, there is really no point in keeping the service. I would imagine that the majority of Netflix customers feel this way too. I don’t suspect any amount of spin is going to help them at this point!
