    I saw nothing in the article that referred to "streaming only" people, which would mean not "everyone" would be affected. Or perhaps me having troubles keeping up too?

    They separated dvds out and streaming. So you can get dvds w/o streaming and vice versa. But if you want both you just pay for both plans.

    I plan to call and complain until i get something comped. Personally i think it's bullshit they'll charge more w/o more streaming content not to mention the fact you have to wait and addition 4 weeks after movies are released to dvd. There is a red box in my area and it's definitely sounding more appealing at this point. I've only had netflix a couple years and this will be my 3rd price hike.

    I wish there was a RedBox in my area. We'd have to drive 20 minutes to get to the nearest one.

    He didn't ask about streaming, I believe it falls under "having troubles keeping up too".
