I can probably watch everything in my queue that's available instantly within a month of dedicated viewing
They own me. I will never finish my streaming queue. I have 200+ discs, and ~200 queued streaming. Ah, well.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Oh, that blows. Unlimited streaming + 1 DVD out is perfect for us, but not at twice the price.
Grr. Us too. My instinct is just to drop the DVD.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think I am going to drop the DVD.
Does anyone know how to get a new red envelope? I am sitting on 2 DVD's because I have no envelope.

Hey. New board.
Honestly, unlimited streaming + 1 DVD out for $9.99 a month (which is what we do too) is awesome, but WAY underpriced for what you get, in my opinion. I think it's only that price now because when it began, streaming was mostly a curiosity, without enough selection to be worth it. So the pricing was low.
Remember, until very recently Blockbuster was charging $3-$5 per DVD rental. To watch anywhere close to as much content as I watch with Netflix 1 DVD + unlimited streaming would cost me $40+ a month, easily, in that world. We can do one DVD of Friends or an equivalent amount of Sports Night in a day, and often do. I'm willing to pay $16 a month for that.

Sophia,
You can put two DVDs in one envelope.

The one thing that is making me reconsider streaming is that I feel I can get most of the content I watch (documentaries) at other places, such as Hulu, Amazon Prime and PBS.org. In fact, I feel I have watched every single appealing documentary on Netflix already.

Hey. New board.
I think in that case, Sophia, you have to put them in an envelope of your own, and shell out for the postage. There are instructions in the FAQ on Neflix somewhere.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh well there you go again, Gris, being all reasonable and stuff!
