I have been using Netflix for some time now. I started at the 3 out plan but switched to the 1 out plan instead.

The service has always worked pretty well. I have received a couple of discs so scratched up they wouldn't play and one that was actually broken. Unfortunately that comes with the territory however.

Throughput has always been excellent. I put a movie in the mail, they get it the next day and mail out the next DVD on that day, the day after that I get the next movie. The only thing that bugs me is that they don't process anything on weekends. I really wish they worked on Saturdays.

Only reason I use Blockbuster is because of their free in store rental coupons..makes it useful when you want a movie without wanting to wait for it to get shipped.

While I do like Netflix I have been thinking about switching to BB for this reason. There is a store very convenient to me and it would be nice to have a free coupon to use for instant gratification.

I love Netflix. Up until recently had 6 at a time. I got busy recently and I've found I dont get them sent back as fast, so I dropped it to 4 at a time which will take effect at the end of the month.
