After 7 years a movie has made it's run from movie theater to cable TV. So after than that getting money from Netflix is fine with them. Of course if Netflix pays more you won't get Netflix streaming for $8 a month.
Also the Runaways isn't that old. It didn't come out in the theaters until March of 2010. That's 11 months ago. I remember when getting a movie on VHS took 18 months to 2 years AFTER it made it theatrical run which may have been 6-9 months.

when something says New Releases, I think it should be what came out this week. This problem doesn't just exist with the non-availability in the Instant section ---- if you go to the main page where you can qeue dvds to mail, the new releases for browsing are months old. They have serious flaws in their browsing scheme. I usually have to go to Amazon and find out the list of new releases for the week, then search for it in Netflix. Its fucking retarded how bad the flick browsing is for a site that's supposed to be at the top of heap for internet movie rental.
