"We realized that streaming and DVD by mail are becoming two quite different businesses ..." That may well be, from their point of view. From my point of view DVD and streaming were part of the SAME product, with DVD backing up streaming by offering what streaming didn't have. For the amount of DVDs I had coming (1 at a time from their minimal DVD+stream deal), I can get about the same service from the local library. There are a lot of movies the library doesn't have; the same is true of Netflix.
