Most Rented Christmas Movies On Netflix Dvd

Netflix’s streaming lineup for Christmas has plenty to watch but you’ll more than likely find big holes in its lineup with classics missing from big distributors who hold back their top Christmas titles for their own platforms and channels. Netflix streaming has close to 100 movies this Christmas but Netflix’s DVD platform has infinitely more. 

For those unaware, Netflix DVD is the subscription service run by Netflix whereby you get sent DVD or Blurays in the mail. It’s their legacy business but is still used by over 2 million people across the United States. The DVD service is a perfect compliment to Netflix streaming as it gives access to many titles that are not available. We’ve just recently published Netflix DVD’s full November and December 2021 lineup.

So, what has been Netflix’s DVD customers’ favorite Christmas movies? Thankfully, we know the answer thanks to data sent to What’s on Netflix from the Netflix DVD team.
