The largest DVD rental company, NetFlix, went down on Sunday but the company reassured customers that the downtime will not affect the shipment of DVDs or the streaming of Watch Instantly movies on Netflix-enabled devices.

“We’re sorry, the Netflix Web site is temporarily unavailable,” reads a note on Netflix.com.

“Our shipping centers are continuing to send and receive DVDs, so your movies will be processed as usual,” the note continued. “And you can still instantly watch movies via your Netflix ready device.”
The cause of the outage was not disclosed by the NetFlix engineers.

UPDATE: The NetFlix website is back up.
