I love it. I tried wal-mart's program, but their movie selection was not that good. Netflix is awesome.

I'd have to agree with Evadman. Netflix is awesome. I got over 150 DVD's in my queue. ;)

Very true point....

Sure it's great that Blockbuster is premiering the "all you can rent" program, but how many lazy ass folks are there like me that don't want to have to deal driving to the closest one all the time to pickup/return movies, whereas with Netflix they deliver it straight to you, and all you have to do is visit your mailbox ;)

BTW, how many DVD's is Blockbuster allowing out at a time with that program?

It would be nice as the nearest blockbuster will soon be neighbors with my job once we move in the spring. Currently, I would have to walk across the street from work to get to them...and seeing as they usually order from us about 5 times a week, I don't see a problem with returning the movie

I used to hate it because the only place they shipped from was CA and I am
on the East coast but I will admit it is way better now that they are shipping
from like five other locations. I can rent alot more without the long transit times.

I used to use it, as long as you turn them around fast enough and watch them on a regular basis you almost always have a movie at home to watch.

Netflix is great, I get 1 day shipping here in the suburbs of Philadelphia, they always ship out my next title the day after I send it back (except weekends of course). Much better selection than Blockbuster, especially if you're into TV series discs.

Walmart is a dollar cheaper, but its not worth it right now. They have less shipping centers, the interface for browsing and queueing isn't very good, and the disc turnaround is generally slower.
