Why should any company be expected to offer a service that costs them money and generates no revenue? > This is about as stupid as Netflix raising its rates on long term > customers that want to still receive DVDs in the mail while almost > giving away the service to those that want to only stream.

This also makes perfect sense to me (even though I don't like it). Netflix sees their future as a video streaming service, and less and less as a DVD exchange system. I would venture that streaming is much more lucrative for them in comparison to operating their DVD distribution centers and then adding in all of their postal fees. The costs of physically processing and mailing discs can only go up, while streaming costs are likely to fall. -- JJZolx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85478 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
