Netflix doesn’t have discount for holidays. They recently up the subscription price. My bet is the increase has to do with the holiday effect (more time at home), and the fact more collections are added. A good number of recent movies are available online (Amazon, YouTube, Netflix) as soon as they leave the box. Though the mote interesting graph would be views. During major sport events I can bet there is a big dip.
The family subscription is a bargain though.

Yeah, during big sporting events, there is a flattening of viewing. But what is really fascinating is that if you dig in, you find that it only affected devices that were typically connected to TVs. So streaming was normal on portable devices like iPads and Phones and the 3DS, but down on the big TVs. However, the biggest dip of all happens during the Oscar telecast, second only to the Golden Globes. :) New Year's eve was pretty flat too, but again only on the big TV devices (kid's devices were unaffected).
