Quote from Topclassactions.com:
"The proposed settlement will resolve Wal-Mart’s portion of the 2009 antitrust class action lawsuit, which accuses Netflix and Wal-Mart of making a pact in 2005 to illegally split the DVD market into rental and retail spaces to reduce competition. The pact was culminated on May 19, 2005 when the companies announced Wal-Mart.com would stop renting DVDs online and Netflix would not offer them for resale. The agreement was made after Blockbuster began offering DVD rentals online, and is believed to have been established to push Blockbuster out of the market. The result, however, is that Netflix customers paid higher subscription prices because of the alleged pact."
