I don't receive the DVD service anymore, and I can get two or more streams at the same time here. I'm only paying the basic rate. You might want to look into that, something doesn't sound right to make you pay for the three DVD plan.

I want to get at least one DVD so I can see some of the new stuff. On the DVD+Streaming plans you cannot have multiple simultaneous streams until you are on at least 3 DVDs. I found this out the hard way... The difference in price for me is the cost of umlimited streaming.

Overall this is cheaper for me because my son is sharing the service with me and either way I would end up paying for his service while he is in college...

Is this something new? I used to get multiple streams even when I had the DVDs in my plan.
I know it's only a few dollars more a month, but I would be upset about that. You can get unlimited streaming for $7.99 a month, but if you upgrade to one DVD a month, they take part of the streaming service away? That's a rip-off, imho.

This started when they split the DVD from the Streaming...
