Will Netflix update their stock as catalogue titles get released in HDM?

I was just thinking about some movies I'd like to see again on HMD (in this instance Go!). From what I can tell, they have been purchasing most (e.g. Goodfellas shows up in all three formats). Should I expect this trend to continue?

Based on their announcement to move forward with Blu-ray, does that also mean that all catalogue releases will show up as available as they are released essentially running contingent with SD DVD or in expectation of ultimately phasing out SD DVD? I'm guessing that SD DVD is so cheap to purchase that they'll never entirely get rid of them (nor do I expect everything in their inventory to see the light of HDM anyway).

For the most part, Netflix has bought HD versions of catalog titles. The one exception I've noted is that I can't seem to get Omega Man on Blu-Ray. Don't know why that is or if I'm doing something wrong.

I'd expect netflix to contnue to purchase Blu-Ray catalog titles, but doubt DVDs will be phased out anytime soon.

They don't have any of the Harry Potter flicks on high-def media except for the last one.
