My wife got this email today:

We are separating unlimited DVDs by mail and unlimited streaming into two separate plans to better reflect the costs of each. Now our members have a choice: a streaming only plan, a DVD only plan, or both.

Your current $9.99 a month membership for unlimited streaming and unlimited DVDs will be split into 2 distinct plans:

Plan 1: Unlimited Streaming (no DVDs) for $7.99 a month
Plan 2: Unlimited DVDs, 1 out at-a-time (no streaming) for $7.99 a month

Your price for getting both of these plans will be $15.98 a month ($7.99 + $7.99). You don't need to do anything to continue your memberships for both unlimited streaming and unlimited DVDs.

These prices will start for charges on or after September 1, 2011.

You can easily change or cancel your unlimited streaming plan, unlimited DVD plan, or both, by going to the Plan Change page in Your Account.

We realize you have many choices for home entertainment, and we thank you for your business. As always, if you have questions, please feel free to call us at 1-888-357-1516.

Looks like Netflix is getting a little greedy. This decision could hurt their bottom line in the long run.

If I can't find what I want on Netflix, I'll Red Box it and if I don't find it there, I find something else.

We usually have a DVD sitting there for 3 weeks or so before we get around to watching it.

The downside is there are more titles available on dvd. Her list is about 250 titles long.
The upside is they are coming out with more and more shows that they are streaming. Old and Next Gen Star Trek are available this week.

The local Walmart got their RedBox yanked.. not sure why.. but gone.

So we are down to one location within 25 miles.. hardly convenient. 🙂

What is on the horizon.

amazing read.
In the end instead of offering a better service to the people, the global giants will stick up our end while they grab our money.
