| I might keep it. It's better than cable, and it's better than most other forms of renting movies. It's also better than hulu plus, at least to me it is. I really enjoy watching what I want, when I want it without having to buy a separate device from what I already own. I watch on my iPod, laptop, 360, and I am still able to share the access with my boyfriend. He watches on his PS3. Like I said, too many perks so far.

| netflix sucks donkey b@ll$ We tried the $7/month thing before they upped their prices. You get all streaming included but if you want one dvd out at a time, it's $9/month. (I can rent new releases at a local rental shop for $1.) Every single dvd we wanted to watch was "upgrade only" and not even just the new releases, it was anything good. The only streaming they had available was already readily available on hulu or youtube. Old stuff? dvd only. Obscure stuff? dvd only. what is the point of netflix if you can't rent out obscure old crap? I wanna watch Army of Darkness on dvd ok? Why should I have to pay $9 for it, when I can buy the darn dvd for $9 on ebay. I cancelled. sucks donkey b@ll$

| I have only had Netflix for a couple of months and like Priscilla, I'm not happy with the selection. With the rate increase, I will be cancelling.

| I switched to a streaming only package and will use Redbox for my movie rentals. I found I was ordering movies and never watching them so Redbox is a better solution. I only use the streaming on my IPad but it does get used so I am okay until they raise prices again.

| Luckily, our public library has tons of movies, it gets almost every new release lately as well, so we've been using it a lot. You can also request that they order something they don't stock & they almost always get it in. I like streaming because I've found a lot on there that we like. But what's annoying is they used to have something then take it off, I don't know if they'll be doing that anymore. I think we'll stick to streaming for now. I've been hearing a lot of people will cancel & wonder if Netflix will reconsider.

| I just got it last week on my Wii. It's $7-$8 per month, right now, I think? I am not sure. I don't have the options for getting DVD's in my mailbox, I just do the streaming thing. Is it going up for just that too? That SUCKS, lol. I JUST signed up for it and am enjoying it. I don't have cable in my bedroom so it's really nice to have. I am still in my free month, though.

| I think we're dropping it. We have the computer hooked up to the TV (so the TV is the monitor), so streaming is great for us, but it probably won't be worth it. We like to watch sitcom reruns, but we aren't able to stream most of them. And with the mailbox service, they only send you one sitcom DVD at a time which is like 4 episodes. It may be fair, but it's lousy. lol. We'll probably just resubscribe to Megavideo or possibly Hulu Plus.

I think my favorite sitcoms were from the 90's though. Boy Meets World is my favorite favorite. Full House, Sabrina, Friends, Seinfeld, etc.
