Exactly. They spin this as a surprising thing they just noticed:
---
we have realized that there is still a very large continuing demand for DVDs both from our existing members as well as non-members.
---
In other words they are sort of "baffled", how come people still want to watch DVDs by mail ... hmm. Of course, it is because they streaming selection is so poor. I, for example, have reached the limit of dvds I wanted to see in the streaming section. I am just waiting for some new ones to appear or just re-watch the old ones.
I guess a strategy in my case would be to switch to mail only for 6 months, then switch to streaming only later, and just alternate like that.
That's why I dropped my Netflix streaming account. I'd seen every streaming video I had any interest at all in seeing, and months would go by before I had an interest in watching something they added.
