I came of age when Netflix was starting to disrupt how we entertain ourselves. At that time you had to mail order DVDs, so you could only watch so much at a time; streaming was a dream yet to come. In those early days I remember swapping between a certain weekend’s Netflix and going to the video rental shops they would later drive out of business.
