2011 Appears to Have Been an Inflection Point for Streaming Movie Rentals

It looks as though 2011 was an inflection point for U.S. users watching movie content. 


Online movie viewing was fairly negligible from 2007 2010, but seems to shifted to a different and higher profile in 2011, according to IHS Screen Digest.
