    Netflix is annoying because their ads seem to be able to beat my pop-up blocker. There's even one at the top of this page. *grump, grump*

    At home my mom and stepdad have Blockbuster online, and we all love it. It's pretty quick and you can go to the store and exchange one you got in the mail for a dvd from the store if you want something right away. We did the 3 at a time.

    We have the Blockbuster 3 at a time program. We can also exchange up to 5 movies a month at the store all for less than 20 a month. I would say we usually get an average of 10-12 movies a month. I love it! I also love watching movies and I can watch series I might have missed. Between that and my Comcast On Demand I never whine there is nothing to watch.

    My parents have the 2 at a time plan. They love it. They have a rotation going where they always have a movie to watch and as soon as they send one out the next one comes in.

    I have Netflix and it works very well for me. I have never had a problem. I don't watch movies except for perhaps one on the weekend so I just have a 1-at-a-time plan. When I'm done I mail it in and the next day the receive it and mail the next out, which I receive the day after that. Considering it would be at least a 40-minute round trip to drive somewhere to rent one and then another to return it, it works out well for me. I've seen more movies since I joined than I have in a couple years. They have various plans available to meet the demands of people's movie-watching habits. I personally think if you're the type who needs a movie every night, the $10 plan is not the right plan for you. And really I wouldn't think a person could expect 30 or so movies a month and expect to only pay $10. Just my opinion.

    I don't expect a movie every day of the week. Being an unemployed, but actively seeking work, college student, I do like to watch movies in my down time. Money is, also, a precious commodity. I just don't feel that it's a great convenience if I pay more to go through them and get three movies over the course of one month. I could just walk over to Blockbuster and get a better deal.

    Thanks everyone for your input. I appreciate it.

    I agree, Netflix isn't that bad of a service. I just wish it was a little more frequent, you know? I don't usually have money to splurge and Netflix is definitely mine. I just hoped to get a little more "bang for my buck" as it were.
