The last disc will be shipped on September 29th 2023 after 25 years of service.

After an incredible 25 year run, we’ve made the difficult decision to wind down at the end of September. Our goal has always been to provide the best service for our members, but as the DVD business continues to shrink, that’s going to become increasingly difficult. Making 2023 our Final Season allows us to maintain our quality of service through the last day and go out on a high note.

    They will possibly be sold off. In the UK we had postal rental service called LoveFilm, and when it eventually shut down many of the DVDs started appearing in second hand stores. For a whole there were bulk boxes of 100 random discs that were being sold very cheaply.

      I don’t find it very likely. All those current Netflix DVD users are also potential customers for the digital subscription. Suddenly all those DVDs floating around for pennies would reduce that number of potential customers, which I believe Netflix doesn’t want.
