I don't use the Netflix (Qwikster?) DVD service, but I do still buy lots of DVDs/Blu-Rays. The visual fidelity on a good DVD/Blu-Ray player is much better than a little streaming box that has to buffer every five minutes anyway, and I love having discs that I can watch offline and not have to worry about ownership changing or the content going away. My box sets are always going to be on my shelf, my .mp4 rips are always going to be on my hard drives, no company tracks my viewing habits, and I don't have to pay anyone a monthly fee for the privilege of them sitting on my shelf. I bet a lot of people use the DVD service to rip all the movies and have them on a hard drive. I've thought about it.
