Netflix splits off DVD service to Quickster (sfgate.com)

I really like Netflix but this seems like a mistake because I think that the AI recommendation system will be cut: movies watched on DVDs will not affect recommendations for streaming, and vice-versa.

The recommendation system is important to me: my wife and I have different streaming accounts just so our recommendations are accurate since we like different types of movies.
