Netflix

Seems that
Most of the really good stuff.. is never available via streaming
Generally DVDs are avail at the same time they are ready for the public

Yep. Physical media are always available right away because Netflix can just go out and buy them. For streaming, they have to negotiate a license with the studios - so movies and shows from some studios are on and some are not. Sometimes there are movies that are available for streaming for a while and then the license isn't renewed and they are gone. Some studios/networks are exclusive to one service or another between Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, etc.

I'm not a big movie guy, so I don't notice what's there with Netflix and what's not. I love it for TV shows. It has a better sampling of all of my favorites than the other services do.

Netflix took to Twitter in the wake of a petition mistakenly asking the streaming service to cancel Good Omens, which is an Amazon Prime show. The petition, "Tell Netflix: Cancel Blasphemous Good Omens Series," circulated by the group the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property, has been signed by more than 20,000 people.
