    Ireland is as large a market as a midsize American state. The UK is equivalent to a second helping of New England/New York. If you are counting on these to revamp Netflix for 2012, you will be disappointed. Latin America could make a bigger difference, depending on what countries are included.

    On the other hand, more could have been said about FSLR in this interview.
