【Watch The Desk Girl Online】

It feels like Netflix's library has always been online. But before the content behemoth pioneered movie streaming,Watch The Desk Girl Online it only mailed out DVDs. Remember?

Redditor u/graysonkatz unearthed a true relic in their parents' attic: a 1999 Netflix advertisement in the shape of giant movie ticket.

"Rent as many DVDs as you want for 20 bucks a month," the antique flier reads.

Although the service seems like it's a pretty recent innovation, Netflix has actually been around since 1997. It expanded into streaming movies and TV shows ten years later in 2007.

These flyers from the '90s introduced a lot of early Netflix subscribers to the service -- one Redditor said that the coupon for a free trial was tucked into the box when they first bought a DVD player.

And when the company first started out, it would send bags of popcorn along with rented DVDs. "Unfortunately that was short lived," u/meliman22 said.

On the bright side, Netflix's prices have gone down! The cheapest subscription is just $7.99 a month -- a sharp drop from its original $20 monthly fee.
