Call me grumpy old man...I

Call me grumpy old man…I just sent this off to netflix.com:

What happened to the great selection of movies that Netflix used to have? Two years ago when I first started renting from Netflix the only reason I might not find a movie here is that the title wasn’t on DVD. Now I’m finding more and more movies that are available on DVD but I can’t rent them from Netflix. Case in point, a fairly mainstream movie like The Stunt Man (3 Oscar nominations) isn’t available. A recent theatrical release like The Sticky Fingers of Time, while available on DVD, is nowhere to be found in my searches on Netflix. As proof of Netflix’s original diversity I can still find titles like Salo or Arabian Nights but now they are unavailable for rental.

So my question is, will Netflix’s selection continue the downward spiral till it is a clone of my local Blockbuster or will it return to the original diversity that drew me to the service in the first place?
