Unlimited streaming is already included in all but the cheapest DVD plan
Instead of 1000 copies of a dvd, they need 1 to rip. = cost savings
and there's nothing to ship any more = cost savings
In all seriousness, I would hazard a guess that netflix's bandwidth bill is somehwere around 5-10k a month... silverlight is compressed pretty good.. Most big bandwidth providers sell in 95% blocks.
