Lawsuit alleges Netflix, Wal-Mart acted improperly

Several lawsuits filed across the country in the past two weeks allege Netflix Inc and Wal-Mart Stores Inc improperly negotiated Wal-Mart's departure from the online video market in 2005 to enable both companies to benefit illegally. "There's a giant investigation by a number of law firms throughout the country regarding anti-trust collusive behavior between these companies," said lawyer Daniel Becnel, who filed one suit in Baton Rouge and one in New Orleans earlier this week.
