Has anyone noticed how it's become even more inaccessible since Netflix announced its split fee system and the Great Divorce between Streaming and DVD's?  (Or was it child abandonment? Qwixter, the company now to be responsible for DVD's, seems soon to become the purveyor of orphan technology.  Witness the fact that Netflix is offering DVD subscribers the choice to get video games by DVD.  Didn't DVD games go obsolete in the early 90's?)

The rep told me that the images on the screen were constantly moving, in order that more choices might be displayed, and that I could solve my access problem by using the DVD pages to find movies that offered streaming as a viewing option.
