According to the Guardian, Netflix now has between 1.5 million and 2 million subscribers in the UK. The number is unofficial though, deduced by an analysis company looking at visits to the Netflix website and extrapolating.

Even more remarkable, the article doesn't fall into the lazy journalistic stereotype of trying to pit Netflix against traditional broadcasters but paints it as just another channel. The author does, however, put it in competition with Lovefilm and sees a direct correlation with a drop in Lovefilm's subscribers.

I'm not entirely convinced. I think if you subscribe to one online service, you're much more likely to subscribe to two or three.

I only subscribe to Netflix, I don't see the point in subscribing to others as well when I can pretty much get the same content and more just using Netflix along with a DNS service.

If those figures are in fact true , it would appear Netflix has done pretty well in what's fast becoming a very competitive market.
