Netflix – Another Example of Bad Web Design for June 10, 2011

Submitter’s comments: Netflix released a new design of their site. You need to be a subscriber to see the monstrosity that they have unleashed but I think you might have a candidate for next year’s awards. The overall usability has fallen off the charts.
But don’t take my word for it – read some of the 1400+ comments on the blog that have been posted since yesterday morning about this thing.
Vincent Flanders’ comments: Wow. I was thinking about joining. My son-in-law has it so I’ll have to check it out.
Netflix explains their new navigation. When you have to explain your navigation, your navigation sucks. I’ve never seen an example to disprove this theory. Sounds like they’ve added Mystery Meat Navigation.
Here’s the Netflix blog discussing the redesign along with 1,500+ comments
