The global production rate of quality movies is much less than 3 per week Erm maybe. But people don't just watch new releases. I watch about 1-2 Netflix DVDs a week, and my queue keeps getting longer - not because I am watching Citizen Kane, but through normal tangents ("gee, this Edward Norton movie was fabulous, wonder what else he has done"). But I also watch documentaries and some TV series on netflix too, so maybe I am not typical. I also don't go out to the cinema, so I don't rule out new releases because I have already seen them. I think the great thing about Netflix is that it really encourages you to branch out because it doesn't feel like any particular DVD "costs" you anything.
