Are you high? Netflix wasn't online, it was DVDs through the mail that you kept until you were ready for new ones. After its online became far more popular than the legacy service, people were still pissed when they announced they were going to stop the DVD mail, even when they stopped using that original service.

I think it's sort of implied that the time period I'm referring to is when Netflix shifted it's attention to the online service.

And what I'm saying is still valid. I remember my father scoffing at Netflix because he didn't think it could compete with traditional TV.
