I use Netflix and it is problem free except for the occasional scratched disk which is easily remedied by cleaning it. The turn around time for movies is unbelievably fast. I always get the movies that are on my que.
I pay 19.95 per month, but what is a couple more bucks per month for a subscription service that gets you the movies you want and extremely fast? I can watch a new move every night if I want to. You are allowed to have up to three movies at one time and the turn around time is less than three days. It is usually two days from the time you drop your movie in the mail untill you get a new movie. Where else can you rent a movie for less than a buck?...thats if you want to watch 20 movies or more per month.
It looks to me that Blockbuster is jerking people around with some sort of price game. I would not go with any company that baits people with one price and then only offers a higher price.. Sounds like a car dealer tactic.
