@Kutulhu Netflix has Angus, War of the Buttons and Wonder Years none of which are available on DVD. It also has tons of hard to find old kungfu movies that I've never found zoned for North America.
@fatdogwiggle Netflix only has titles on DVD. And not every title on DVD. They don't have Warner Archive, nor MGM Limited Edition, or any of the fast growing 'manufacture on demand' catalogs. They don't have DVDs from most independent DVD sellers. They don't have imports. They don't have anything that is only available on VHS or laserdisc. Hey, not everybody has a video store in their city. I understand that. But there is no reason to not support both.
@Kutulhu How does a local video store offer better selection? I personally dont care about personal service in a video rental service. I have found hundreds of more awesome films using the Netflix sugggestions than I did in over a decade of using a local video rental place. I have never experienced any problems with my nexflix service and I have used them for 4 or 5 years. They are facing financial trouble because of operational costs not the value of DVDs.
@fatdogwiggle Yep. Its just white people who care about their local economies, personal service, better selection, and physical media. Netflix is awesome...when they paid actors to pretend to like Netflix Canada for news cameras when that service started....or when they throttle your service so you receive titles slower than you did when you signed up because you are no longer 'new'...or when they completely devalued the DVD to the point where they wanted to get out of their own business...
@zombiesatemycereal The local video stores in Austin (I Love Video and Vulcan Video [featured in this clip]) are thriving, so you can suck it.

@Kutulhu Anyone can burn a DVD I just want to see the movie. Netflix is more efficient at offering a wider selection.
