I actually like Netflix - for the most part - and consider their catalog to be pretty extensive They don't have everything, but I've managed to fill up my queue with a couple hundred films, many of which are quite obscure and difficult to find. They also get most of the Criterion releases, and keep up quite well IMHO with other stuff.
Streaming is fine, and I realize it is the wave of the future, but I still think it's a jump to call discs a complete anachronism for a variety of reasons.
For starters...no broad band internet - no movie for you. Internet is also prone to choked bandwidth, outages, internal problems with your own equipment, etc. Also, for those with a projector and/or large screen this can be an issue. I have tried a couple different streaming services on my 110" screen and it was VERY lacking in comparison to a Blu-ray disc. This is actually the main reason that I do not look forward to things moving to exclusively streaming.
Aside from the video quality, there is the issue of streaming lacking the full hi-res audio that Blu-ray is capable of - not to mention lack of even surround sound in many cases.
There is also the issue of extras that are part of the DVD/Blu Ray package. This is absent with streaming.
I am also highly suspect that the entire back catalog will become available.
