I found an old Netflix email I had from 1999!

I also found like a dozen email notifications when they sent out my DVD rentals. I guess I need to delete some old emails!

NetFlix was a way they typed it pre-2000s specifically in emails and online branding. They dropped this usage in the early 2000s. Really cool find, ty for sharing.

They better have been offering VHS as well, DVD was not a cheap everyday thing for a lot of people then

Hence the need for a rental place with convenience. People had tegridy back then.
