If the market segment for online DVD rentals saturates, our business will be adversely affected.

The market segment for online DVD rental has grown significantly since inception. Some of the increasing growth can be attributed to changes in our service offering, especially the ability of our subscribers to stream movies and TV episodes on their TVs, PCs and Macs. Fluctuations in our rate of growth could indicate that the market segment for online DVD rentals is beginning to saturate. While we believe that online DVD rentals will continue to grow for the foreseeable future, if this market segment were to saturate, our business would be adversely affected.

This excerpt taken from the NFLX 10-K filed Feb 28, 2008.

If the market segment for online DVD rentals saturates, our business will be adversely affected.

We have experienced rapid growth of our online DVD rental subscription business since our inception. We have attracted a large number of subscribers who have traditionally used video retailers, video rental outlets, cable channels, pay-per-view and VOD for their in-home filmed entertainment. While the market segment for online DVD rental has grown significantly, we saw our growth slow in 2007. Our slowing growth appears primarily to be the result of the rapid growth of our direct competitor, Blockbuster Online. Even with the apparent reduced competitive threat from Blockbuster Online, our rate of growth may continue to slow. Such slowing growth could indicate that the market segment for online rentals is beginning to saturate. While we believe that online DVD rentals will continue to grow for the foreseeable future, if this market segment were to saturate, our business would be adversely affected.
