Time to drop my movie channels and add a disc to my netflix subscription.

Netflix also rents HD-DVD and Blu-ray no extra charge.

Looks like they're just catching up to Time Warner. They raise the rates every freakin' year!

As with any large company, some people will love the service, others will hate it. No rhyme or reason to why some people have tons of problems and others are problem free.

Hey they gave me a discount of $29.99 for 12 months, no complaints :)...
Current customer deal... I argued since I didn't like their service if I get no discount, I'm cutting them off...
