Netflix down for 5 hrs+

The movie rental service Netflix was down on Monday 7am PDT for more than 5 hours. This was unusual as the typical site outages for maintenance last for about an hour. When contacted Steven Swasey, director of corporate communications, he declined to share the cause of outage but assured it wasn't related to maintenance. He also reaffirmed the customers that the databases were intact and that their movie selections were safe.
Note that the company's website had gone down last July too for an extended period.
