nielsen will start track shows like this. and more netflix news. postponing a upcoming comedy show by bill cosby in the wake of stories. how does nielsen change the game if at all? >> i think this is a pr stunt. nielsen's way of tracking viewership is so outdated and so ineffective. i wasn't it via com yesterday came out and complained? even the people who've benefitted enormously over the years from their ratings now recognize that it is really a game. and to me the game no longer works. and honestly i don't see how this effects netflix at all. i don't see how it affects streaming at all. it is totally possible to count this. it is just not possible to count it reasonably the way nielsen does it. and nielsen works from the household and those households gain the system constantly. i look and see much ado about nothing. and the story about netflix is europe and other geographies. i don't think this makes a difference. and as for the cosby thick. one thing that is is hard about being an investor today is figuring out what things people are going to
