    Got the email this afternoon and immediately logged in and cancelled the DVD service. I guess I'll just keep streaming for now. Between that and HBOGO, I haven't even watched one of their dvds in a few months.

    that's what my girlfriend brought up last night. She said "why do we even have a multiple DVD plan? We watch maybe one or two a month max".

    I'll just drop it to the limited DVD plan. They really have beefed up their streaming selection. And yeah, since I have free DIRECTV, HBO and Cinemax Go, plus all of the turner networks streaming, I don't need much more

    i'll drop the streaming and keep my unlimited 3 DVDs. the streaming rarely works, and delivers half the content. frankly, i just don't need it and prefer the DVD, which has captions and is superior in every way, shape or form to the streaming.

    I don't know why people are having issues with streaming, I've gone through about 3 full TV series they have on there (what little they actually have every season of) and thus far no problems... I guess it's my blazing fast internet (thanks comcast). I don't really do the DVD method anyway (I've had one DVD since like March and fear sending it back because I'll just get another in the mail to sit and collect dust). My fix, whatever they don't have on streaming instead of waiting 2-4 days for the snail mail I just BT it, watch it, and if it's good throw it on the ol 2TB HDD or delete if I don't like it. I'd rather wait 10-20min for a movie to download than 2-4 days for the mail. Whatever, I'm switching my service to streaming only.

    Also, does anyone remember that press release netflix issued a few months ago where they wanted every movie/tv show/etc to be on Watch Instantly? I think they said by July 2012 the whole database should be WI.

    The selection and wait times of Netflix sucks. The streaming movies are all old. I can not complain about the quality cause it's comparable to a DVD for me.

    I have it simply because I do not have time to go run out to Redbox.. I just had 2 movies sitting there on my counter for almost a month..

    I plan to cancel come sept 1st.

    Hmmm, company A lowballs all the competition til there is no more. Company A then raises their rates to reap the rewards. No one saw this one coming?

    I guess if it's free to download on the web then it must be okay .

    If you are using Netflix for streaming TV, dump it and pick up Hulu, they have more shows and better ones.
