DVD Not Dead Yet As Netflix Launch New DVD Rental Service

Reports of the death of the DVD may be a little premature, as successfull streaming site Netflix have surprised everyone by launching a new unlimited DVD monthly rental plan.

Netflix keep the DVD spinning

Netflix has been steamrollering the competition for online streaming and have said themselves that the future is streaming and non-physical delivery of content. But a new $7.99 monthly dvd rental service shows there is life in the old dog yet.

Users can sign up and have a months free trial followed by monthly payments of $7.99 giving unlimited DVD’s by mail. Netflix still have other DVD rental plans but they limit the user to a measly 2 discs monthly.

Netflix seem to realise that some users are just not interested in streaming on a TV, PC or phone/tablet and are happy plonkling a DVD into the player as we all used to in the old days.

It seems a bit pointless to us, as the $10 monthly service gives the best of both worlds, but there you go. Although DVD sales are dropping while streaming and digital delivery takes over, DVD aint dead…just yet!
