Per Feedfliks:

The NY Times reports that Netflix has replaced an existing deal with HBO, where HBO was estimated to be paying $20 million per picture.

The Netflix accord, which analysts estimate is worth $30 million per picture to DreamWorks over an unspecified period of years, is billed by the companies as the first time a major Hollywood supplier has chosen Web streaming over pay television.

The first Dreamworks titles should start streaming in 2013.
