- autoexec 3y agoI signed on with netflix at their start and kept the DVD plan right up until the end. Somewhat ironically the first thing I'd do after getting a DVD was create a digital copy, but I agree selection back that couldn't be beat by any streaming service since (with the possible exception of Amazon, if you're willing to pay for the rental of individual shows on top of what you're already paying them monthly for prime) If the trend of never releasing shows on physical media continues, we'll never get the chance to see something like netflix's DVD service again. Even public library systems will only be able to provide what was previously released on disk. Considering how public libraries are already pushing people to third party e-book services I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually stopped offering physical media to card holders too.
