It does seem it would have been sensible to put a search box on the main page, but I'm not sure I really agree with your point. You would make a recurring monthly subscription decision by individually searching for specific things available at this moment?? It seems far more people would make such a decision by browsing for the KIND OF STUFF they are interested in to get a sense of whether there will be a volume of stuff to watch.
I am looking for the "kind of stuff"--I like generally like older movies and shows with certain actors, for example, so I might want to look and see if there's a good selection of movies with those actors. It's not that I'm looking for a specific film or show right now, but if I were to key in a few names and get only a handful of hits, I would decide Netflix is probably not for me. And vice versa--if I found a lot of the kind of material that generally appeals to me, I might well sign up for the trial.

P.S. Thanks for the search link.
