Dear matt,

We are separating unlimited DVDs by mail and unlimited streaming into two separate plans to better reflect the costs of each. Now our members have a choice: a streaming only plan, a DVD only plan, or both.

Your current $11.99 a month membership for unlimited streaming and unlimited DVDs (including Blu-ray access) will be split into 2 distinct plans:

   Plan 1: Unlimited Streaming (no DVDs) for $7.99 a month
   Plan 2: Unlimited DVDs (including Blu-ray), 1 out at-a-time (no streaming)
              for $9.99 a month

Your price for getting both of these plans will be $17.98 a month ($7.99 + $9.99). You don't need to do anything to continue your memberships for both unlimited streaming and unlimited DVDs.

These prices will start for charges on or after September 1, 2011.

You can easily change or cancel your unlimited streaming plan, unlimited DVD plan, or both, by going to the Plan Change page in Your Account.

We realize you have many choices for home entertainment, and we thank you for your business. As always, if you have questions, please feel free to call us at 1-888-357-1516.

I would prefer to stream everything, but what about *%$! that is not available via stream?  For example, The Wire, which is a double L (no stream, no blu ray).  Solid series so far though, just got through season 1 (Another

for having 2 episodes on 1 disc).

They're finding a way to make money by bilking their customers as much as they quite possibly can to the point that you'll think of quitting yet still retain you as a customer as you're either too lazy to go to a redbox or too comfortable in the program to bother making a change. Marketing and evolving business structures, my man. I'm sticking to streaming... DVDs take too long and I'm not as interested in physical disks anymore as I can simply stream practically anything that I'm interested in.

I got an email from them at work about this. I guess I'm switching to just streaming.

  Seriously.

I mostly use to catch up on old but classic tv shows and most "cable" shows don't have the stream option (The Wire, The Shield, Sopranos, Rome, Dexter, etc.)

I watch things like movies from that one thread on here suggesting good movies, classics that I haven't watched in ages, Deadliest Warrior, The Office, South Park etc. As for the shows which you've mentioned regarding not having the streaming option I have other avenues I can travel to get to those shows.
