Was Time Warner CEO Jeff Bewkes being coy or sarcastic last month when he told a Wall Street gathering that “Netflix is our friend”? You might think so now that HBO has stopped providing discounted DVDs of its programs to the video rental company. It’s not a show-stopper for Netflix, which can continue to buy discs in the open market. The company says that it “will continue to provide HBO programs on DVD and Blu-ray to our members.” (DVD, HBO, Netflix, VOD)
