Netflix Blog: “So we realized that streaming and DVD by mail are becoming two quite different businesses, with very different cost structures, different benefits that need to be marketed differently, and we need to let each grow and operate independently. It’s hard for me to write this after over 10 years of mailing DVDs with pride, but we think it is necessary and best: In a few weeks, we will rename our DVD by mail service to “Qwiksterâ€.”
Qwikster? All of the good names must have been taken?

What the matter with MailFlix? That says it all.
Yep, I had that same thought. Someone on Twitter suggested Postflix. If they didn’t consider these I’d be shocked.
How about SnailFlix?
I love this idea. It works.
Mailflix, Postflix, and Snailflix are all great alternatives.
I really like Snailflix. I could see a neat mascot in the form of a snail with a postal workers bag full of red envelopes.
Qwikster? What the heck does that mean? Nothing.
