Um not just series. Growing number of documentaries are online only and I strongly suspect that feature films will follow in the coming years. It sucks for librarians and preservation but it does give rights holders/distributors total control for logistical and legal reasons ( most streaming tends to have some kind of contract involved).

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
