Well increasing the monthly rate for Netflix will sure help. Maybe they keep getting good original programming and rates keep going up to the point where it is almost the same as HBO? Or maybe a two tier model, so for a higher price you get the exclusives or quicker access to new seasons of TV shows?
One day HBO will change their distribution method and I will probably line up to buy it. But I will not spend over $50/month just to get HBO in HD (as I don't have cable now) and I have no desire to buy their DVD's just so I can watch something once, a year later with everyone else already done and possible spoilers already been given.
