I'll also be canceling the streaming part. It sounded cool but I stopped using it after a few months when every movie I wanted to get was only available on dvd. Now I just get blue rays anyway. Better quality ftw 7/12/2011 9:00:26 PM |

And its still funny how they raise the prices right after choking the life out of blockbusters' brick and mortar operation. 7/12/2011 9:01:31 PM |

Is there a secret to when movies get released on netflix in DVD form? What about in streaming form?
I.e. is it DVD gets released, then netflix gets it 2 weeks later then it streams 4 weeks after that? Or is it just random? Or does it depend on which studio the movie is? 7/12/2011 9:17:34 PM |

DVDs it's generally a month after they come out
there's no rhyme or reason to the streaming schedule 7/12/2011 9:19:07 PM |

The price doesn't change until September, so you've still got some time to get use out of the DVD portion.
I mainly use Netflix to watch TV and random movies I always meant to see but never got around to. As such, the dvd thing isn't such a huge concern, just disappointing. 7/12/2011 9:29:50 PM |

id already planned on cancelling once i finish out my queue, another 30 movies or so, so not really a big deal. I already have cable + HBO and Showtime, its overkill really. Prob gonna cancel the movie channels too, in the end ill be saving $30/mo overall. my neighbor is switching over to my internet to cut costs, another $20 saved/mo. That's $600/yr I get back 7/12/2011 9:35:47 PM |

Your price for getting both of these plans will be $22.98 a month ($7.99 + $14.99). You don't need to do anything to continue your memberships for both unlimited streaming and unlimited DVDs.

I may drop streaming. The only thing we watch is Lost and Parks N Rec when were are bored and have nothing else to watch. Sometimes I get on a documentary kick but they are always biased and annoying to watch. If the streaming service starts getting EVERYTHING then I guess I'll jump back on. Hell they gave me no incentive to stay. 7/13/2011 9:39:35 AM |
