I don't really mind DVDs when I'm watching at home, but having stuff on Netflix is nice when it comes to watching at work, or when I'm stuck somewhere boring. I tend not to watch more than 2-3 eps in a row even if I am binging, so switching discs isn't that much of a pain.
I'd like B5 up on Netflix just to make it easier for more people to watch it, though. It's so nice when recommending a show to just say, "and it's on Netflix!" than to be like, "well, see if your library has it on DVD?" It's a big commitment to buy something sight-unseen, even if the person who rec'd it is trustworthy in that sense, and trying to find a show, even a fairly mainstream show, can be a pain. Stupid studios and their stupid rights issues.
