What it does

Sadly, it's the end of the road for A Better Queue. It relied on Netflix's public API, and Netflix retired the API on November 14th, 2014 . Thanks to everyone who sent feature requests over the past couple of years. I had more plans for A Better Queue, but once I realized that the Netflix API retirement was imminent , it became clear that putting more effort into the project wasn't worth the time. Thanks to all who wrote to say they found A Better Queuefrom abetterqueue.com
