Re: Netflix vs Blockbuster...Should I go Netflix?
I have Netflix (so I could watch Spartacus
)
Pros: I like to be able to download movies to watch on the PC or TV (via the Wii) or use their mail service. The movies get here pretty quickly
Cons: Their selection oft he latest movies is a little bit slower than BlockbusterIf you don't fight for what you deserve, you deserve what you get.

Re: Netflix vs Blockbuster...Should I go Netflix?
hmm I went to check some examples.. looks like a 4 week difference
Our Family Wedding was released by Blockbuster this week (7/13) and it is not available on Netflix until 8/10
what I also notice is Blockbuster has the releases available On Demand while Netflix does not have it immediately available.
Netflix does have StarzPlay Blockbuster does not
Netflix supports on demand to your computer (PC or MAC) while Blockbuster supports only pc

Re: Netflix vs Blockbuster...Should I go Netflix?
Looking at Netflix too. Got rid of Blockbuster after enough times of them charging late fees when I was positive I returned the thing on time. Stupid lazy workers! Not sure I'll do the online because I doubt the ISP will allow me to download Gigabytes of data without extra charges. I'll probably pay extra for the Blueray. I know a few people with Netflix and they don't have any complaints.Comment

Re: Netflix vs Blockbuster...Should I go Netflix?
I have had Blockbuster on line for a few years now. I am using a free two week trial of Netflix now as well.
Netflix had some movies that I could not get from blockBuster (They could not say when Smile Orange would be available) and they seem to ship faster.
I will stay with BlockBuster because every time a movie (that i got by mail) i get a free rental. That is when we rent the newest movies. I also get a coupon for a free in store rental every month (i paid like $20 for a key chain tag for that).
If they stopped the freebies I would probably go to Netflix.Comment

Re: Netflix vs Blockbuster...Should I go Netflix?
The blockbuster free stuff seems good. Like everyone mentioned I am tired of late charges that seem to just creep up. They tell you 7 day, then 5 days then something new...you never know when to return a movie and not get late charges...Out of Many One People Online
