Maybe the reason here then is that they hit subscriber limits that have triggered contract clauses, so they want to make sure that those counting as "streaming" subscribers actually use it, and don't just have it added to their physical media plan as a convenience. They could lose money on people that aren't actually streaming but are signed up for it, so they want to make sure those getting physical media also really want the streaming and use it and thus pay for it, rather than it being the throw-in it started as to get customers when Netflix got the streaming content for cheap.
