Of course that's an option but my opinion is that Netflix's popularity is more to do with its cheap entry point and original content thrown in with its superior technology , buying up first run movie rights in a competitive market doesn't come cheap and this price would no doubt be added to the subscription charge. Time will tell I guess.
