Yes yes yes!!!

All of the points you mention are fantastic and great ideas. I've often thought about the business model of these companies (we have a couple here in Oz) and came to similar conclusions.

If they would only wake up and focus on the people who have been subscribed for years - then their business will grow. These people are the "go to" people for their friends when it comes to technology. This way - when Blockbuster etc... release their version they'll raise the profile of the whole concept. Joe Pleb then says to his friend "So what do you think of this whole thing?" and he says - "It's cool - but try Netflix they've been doing it for ages and they rock!!!"

If they try to integrate themselves into online communities it can only lead to more business!

Ah well ... rant over. If only I had the money to start up my own version :)
