If you were still wondering why Netflix chose right now to
split apart its unlimited DVD and streaming movie plans you need look no further than the just released Q2 financial report. According to the numbers, 75 percent of new subscribers were picking DVD only plans, while the total number of people on the hybrid DVD / streaming plan had actually decreased slightly, even as it breached 25 million subscribers worldwide. Of course, it did notice the intense backlash to the new rates, but predicts that after the hit of cancellations, by the end of the third quarter it will still have 22 million people subscribed to streaming, 15 million total subscribed to DVDs, and about 12 million customers with both. Waiting on that
Facebook integration? Don't hold your breath, while the new features are due to launch in Canada and
Latin America, it claims ambiguous wording in the Video Privacy Protection Act is holding things back domestically.
