A couple of things lately have made me wonder if they're subtly pushing
people off DVDs.

There no subtly about it. They would love all their customers to go
"digital". The problem is the digital selection sucks and a lot of
people in the U.S. still can't get anything more than dial up.

If I was required to go digital, I would just cancel my account.
