Because the viewing experience in movie theaters is too expensive,
uncomfortable and very difficult to get to for those with young kids.

Usually when my wife and I get a chance to see a movie, it is a
surprise -- the kids fell asleep early or something like that, so
being able to stream a movie when we get a chance, is great.
