I would really love to hear people’s experience with either online DVD rental. In town we have a really crappy cable company, so I dropped them. We have been going to the library for the last year (switching between 4) and have pretty much rented almost their entire collection of movies. So I figure I will put in a little bit of money and be able to see a bigger collection (and newer ones!).
I can’t decide which company to go with, I would pick the 3 movies at a time option.
Blockbuster is a dollar cheaper a month and you get discounts for movies rented at the store. They also do not have any fees for Blueray movies.
Netflix is a dollar more a month and charges a fee if you rent blueray movies. But they have an option to watch movies instantly online.
I don’t know how often I would go to the store or watch them online, but those are nice features. Can anyone tell me their experience with either company. I want to know what the turnaround time on movies you want are, if you are usually able to get new releases, the quality of the dvd (are they all scratched up?), and customer service.

Why would you pay money to watch movies? There’s a whole bunch of websites that let you watch a wide variety for free. Think I’m joking? watch-movie-links.net, Youtube, Megavideo, Veoh, Alluc.org, Tudou, Youku, with surfthechannel and cucirca for TV.

Blockbuster for sure. You can get nothing but Blu Rays if you want, You can exchange envelopes for more movies from the stores, the turn arounds are super fast, the employees are super awesome : ) and now they are cheaper than netflix.
What more could you want? : )
Oh, for the most part, all i’ve heard from netflix customers is that they get A LOT of scratched up dvds in the mail, and even though they get a free exchange, they still have to wait for it. Also, with Blockbuster, you don’t have to wait as long for hot new releases.
As far the downloading movies thing goes, well, me personally, id rather watch a movie on my big screen tv than to sit in front of my computer for such a long time. It hurts my butt. Id rather be on the couch or bed with some snacks.
