| Netflix Vs Blockbuster I'm tired of my local video rental place. However, I can't decide between these two. Do any of you use them? Pro's and Cons?

Therapy Dog Donating Member | We have Netflix and love it. At first I thought we wouldn't like it but it's so easy to pick your movies and move them in the que. They are super fast in getting them to you and super fast in logging them back in. For example when Juno came out on that Tuesday, I went to Netflix, selected the movie and moved into first in my que. It even said a small delay (since it was a new release and was up for an Academy Award) but on that Thursday we got it. I was really surprised. Hey they have a two week trial for free and if you don't like it you can cancel. I have a friend who has BB has hates it. We have a BB right by us and a Family Video and got tired of them both not having movies we wanted to see. Best part of Netflix is that you can take all the time in the world to watch it and return it.

| I love love love Netflix. You can try it out for 2 weeks free, and it really isn't a hassle to sign up for that. Also the database of movies is HUGE! I have movies in my queue that you would never find at Blockbuster.

| I have used both Netflix and Blockbuster Online in the past. Both have their pros but I would recommend Netflix as the better choice. While Blockbuster has the convience of being able to exchange movies in-store rather than waiting on the mail, they have changed their plans so now, unless you want to spend $$, they limit the number of instore exchanges you can do per month. Personally I think that Netflix has a much larger movie selection, their website is easier to understand, and it is easier to find the movies you are looking for.

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | Renting videos I use Netflix. I like it,especially with the cost of gas and all. I like the fact that you can return them all in one envelope (i' in the 3 at a time ) They return them to a local wharehouse so in a day you get three more. I hate T.V. anymore . Too much REALITY in this world!!! I'm sure you'll like . They have a wide varriety,and suggest what to rent based on your rental history. Good Luck

| I use Netflix and love it. I am always amazed how quickly I get them back. Mine come right out of Cleveland so that helps.

| We are VERY satisified with Netflix. They are very speedy at sending out movies and very helpful when needed. |
