Most of the gains for Netflix and loses for BB were from Jul '07 to Sept '07. Both sites are relatively flat between Sept '07 and now. I wonder why that is.

Maybe there are no more customers who will sign up for rentals? Has this particular bus model been completely tapped out?

this is a unique visitors chart. absolutely meaningless. Banner ads even ones never clicked -- create hits. if netflix has an affiliate program and pays $0.10 for each banner advert that is clicked and results ina new subscription people will place them without any outlay from netflix. the mere existance of those banners on sites creates these page views.
even each the way the sites handle navigation and cookies can increase or decrease unique visitors 20 fold.
It is about the most idiotic application of web metrics I have seen.
