The one big advantage the disk service had over streaming, was that Netflix could buy the disks from anywhere (even the local Walmart, if they had to), and lend them to customers.
Streaming requires negotiating licensing rights, with each IP owner independently.
This is why the DVD service had so many more titles than the streaming service. At least when I was actively using it.
