PART 2–A NON-OBIT
The announcement by Netflix that it would stop mailing out DVDs changed my behavior. I now regularly race to a street mailbox before its 9am pickup to return a disc I received the previous day. The sooner the company gets it back, the quicker it will send out the next title in my ever-expanding queue.
I suspect that among red envelope fans, I’m not alone in trying to break our monthly records (Netflix’s non-streaming subsidiary) has kept a list of all 2,500 discs I’ve borrowed since 2005. (I can’t believe they’ve already dumped my history from the preceding 7 years.)
