scott mcgrew that's just amazing. >> it is. netflix says it has more subscribers than show time and cinnemax. netflix has been under a lot of pressure from hollywood and cable companies. they are really, honestly, afraid of netflix. netflix had soothing language as it reported its profits saying it's not leaving people to cut their cable. netflix wants to be an extra alternative to cable and satellite customers. netflix, as you can sere is being very humble as it makes the biggest profit in nine quarters. meanwhile, the place station network which has three times as many registered users as netflix is still down this morning. it's a disaster for the company. people are worried the hacker could have had access to private information and credit cards.

under california law, sony would have to indicate it's happened and would have to say so, soon. now, the question here is just how big is play station. there's play station when compared with brian williams on "nightly news." we'll get rid of that word there for you to see. brian williams can miss svn days of nightly news before he can catch up with what play station lost their first day of being down. there you go. a huge influence on the world. seven times bigger than our good, good, good friend brian. >> it's simply shocking, actu actually. >> amazing. that many using play station. >> i'm not one of them. i would rather watch brian williams. that's just me. now, the program in mountain view that searches for extraterrestrial life. on the phone with us is dr.

seth. you are telling us you are losing funding, is that correct? >> that's correct. it's in a hibernation mode because of the lack of funding to operate it. >> okay. what does this mean, then, for extraterrestrial life or the search for it. the search for intelligence relies on telescopes like the movie contact if people recall the jodie foster film where they used antennas to ease drop on live. life as clever as we are. this is an experiment that's been running for many decades. it's an experiment that gets better and there's a dedicated instrument to do it in northern california in the cascade mountains. because of the budget short falls in the state of california, our partner, the university of california doesn't

have the funds necessary to keep this telescope running. >> you want rent time. are you going to still do that? >> at the moment, we put all of efforts into this array, just to the east of redding, california and so, you know, that's where all the equipment is. very specialized equipment. this is a very low budget operation run on the basis of moneys donates by private individuals. at the moment, there isn't the money that it takes to move the equipment and use somebody else's antenna. we hope to resuscitate it. >> ha do you do now? can you go over old data or drum your fingers on the desktop? >> caller: umptly, it's more the latter than the former.

there's no recording it. you can't. it's too much. it would fill up your hard disk in a matter of minutes. all the data is looked at in realtime. in other words, as it comes in. if you find it interesting, you check it out right away. it's not a matter of rooms full of data that we can look through on a basis of stuff that's been collected in the past. the data is looked at as it enters the telescope. you want the telescope now to do more research. >> caller: 50 or 60 of them so far. this number will increase. they have been found and are not just candidates for being planets but planets with liquid water on the surface. they could have oceans. these are potential cousins of the earth. it would be a terrible shame when we are finding the earth is

not all that special as planets go, not to be able to check them out. >> thank you for joining us this morning. we will continue to cover that at 5:00 and 6:00 tonight. lexus holds its value better than any other luxury brand. ♪ intellichoice proclaims that lexus has the best overall value of any brand. ♪ and j.d. power and associates ranks lexus the highest in customer satisfaction.

guns on the streets. we are following a pothole problem. christie smith is live in oakland where crews are going to patch up potholes. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. we found this by potholes. part of somebody's bent wheel. this is not a good sign of what the potholes can do. it's not only annoying, but can be expensive. drivers know it's here because they tend to slow down before they hit it. this is where the city is trying to fill 2,000 potholes in just one month. a report on the city's website shows 32% of oakland streets are in poor or very poor shape. in town hall meetings on infrastructu infrastructure, the mayor says this is a top complaint. at this point, the money isn't there for repaving the streets. this is the next best thing. eight crews are going to be out there with asphalt and shovels.

dipping or drawing a pension and a salary at the same time. now, this is set to expire on july 1. a recent city report found the program cost taxpayers $52 million more than hiring new officers through the academy. backers say san francisco needs to extend the program or it could see catastrophic effects on staffing levels at the department. 169 officers enrolled in the program since it was approved back in 2008. 6:37. take a look. is this looking at angel island? i think so. pretty shot. it looks windy, though. >> she looks like an angel in front of that shot, doesn't she, scott? don't answer that. good morning to you. we are looking good this morning, of course, if his wife was watching, that's why i said that. you do look angelic. what a difference 24 hours looks, right. we were socked in it with fog yesterday. because high pressure is moving
