Reed Hastings says otherwise.

Netflix was always intending to stream movies via the Internet. it wasn't possible when the company was founded, but streaming was the vision from the outset. they began the dvd-shipping service to build the company and bootstrap their way to the streaming service.

I've read this in multiple places, but I'm not going to do your homework for you.

Unless he produces documents from around the founding period where he says that, I'll treat Reed Hastings' comments as nothing more than puffery.
