Doesn't Netflix still do DVDs by mail? That might be a good option as well.

Yes. About a year ago, I resubscribed to Netflix DVDs because the library is so much better than what's on streaming. I feel like people have forgotten that the DVD library is enormous and has basically every movie you'd ever want -- and now that fewer people use it, you don't have long wait times anymore.

I've never bothered to resubscribe to Netflix DVDs because I've always been able to find what I'm looking for as a rental from Amazon or iTunes.

It's a shame they haven't adopted UHD. That'd give me a reason to re-subscribe.

Yes they do. I am a Netflix DVD-by-mail customer.
