Just Got This Email From Netflix:
For 25 years, it's been our extraordinary privilege to mail movie nights to our members all across America. On September 29th, 2023, we will ship our final iconic red envelope.
While times have changed since our first shipment in March 1998, our goal has remained the same: to provide you with access to the broadest collection of movies and shows possible, delivered directly to your door, with no due dates or late fees.
As the DVD business continues to shrink, its going to become increasingly difficult to achieve that goal. In our final season, well continue providing you the best service possible, all the way to the very last shipment.
You may have some questions, and we've tried to answer them in our Final Season FAQ - and if you want to share something with us, you can send feedback here.
We sincerely thank you for joining us on this amazing journey. We could never have shipped more than 5 billion discs without movie lovers like you. It's been a genuine privilege to share movie nights with you.
Pop the popcorn, fire up your player, and enjoy this final season of red envelopes.
Sincerely,
The Netflix DVD team
I am bummed out!

(44,759 posts)1. Yep, we're bummed, too.
I have so many things in my queue that are not available on streaming. Guess we'll be watching as many of them as we can in the next few months.

(10,842 posts)3. Another thing to thank Louis DeJoy for
I formerly could get two netflix deliveries per week. Thanks to DeJoy's fucking with the post office, I'm doing good to get three or four per month now.
That may not be the entire reason, but it still hurt netflix.

rent on Amazon prime (expensive) or buy them on E-bay.
Any suggestions on how to download my que?

Like Tubi, Freevee, Kanopy, and Hoopla.
