I watch Netflix DVDs more than streaming but I do take advantage of both. I normally watch streaming movies via the X-Box, but I recently got a Roku, as well.

As of late, I am not as happy with them when it comes to TV Series.
First Dexter vanished from my queue and being available to "unknown"

I too have been with NF since the beginning. Used to have 4 or 5-out plans, but since they raised their BD prices, and then STOPPED carrying new BD catalogue titles (and even some new BD releases), and began their one-month delay as well, I switched to Blockbuster (no 28-day wait) and changed the plan to one at a time. Of course, with the purchase by DISH, the BB rental service has been getting bumpy...we'll see how that plays out. But the industry is doing everything possible to lessen the A/V home video experience, prevent the consumer from getting discs, and charging us more for the privilege. So yeah, I guess I'm still a subscriber...but not a happy one.
