Webware explains in GameSpot and Craigslist, where did you go? why I couldn't get to the Netflix site yesterday. Yup, electricity is still needed. A power failure in San Francisco took out the data center known as 365 Main, even though they guarantee "24/7/365 power, cooling, connectivity and security capabilities". Though they seem to have been without power for only 45 minutes, I found netflix was down for hours, practically the whole day. Coincidentally it was when they announced a rough quarter, new lower prices, and their stock was getting pummeled.
As usual, Jamie has a the real answer.
Update: Nope, it wasn't the power outage.
