I rent all of my movies online, usually Amazon. As all of the "older" TVs phase out over the next 10 years and "smart" TVs phase in, a lot of this stuff will no longer be needed. Everything will be online.

A big issue with the Netflix switch is the strain it could cause on the national broadband network. We need to get building that out ASAP or growth over the next decade could be really hampered by the onslaught of Internet powered TVs and further growth of online video. Everybody watches YouTube, even my 75-year-old grandmother... wait until we have one billion smart TVs streaming full length videos and TV shows every night.
