Last I signed up for Netflix last night and was hoping it was as good as it sounds.Has anyone ever ordered dvd movies by mail?Was the delivery fast and did you stick with them?Who did you use blockbuster,netflix,etc?

I have been using netflix for nearly a year. I have had a couple of problems like a dvd go missing, but netflix is so awesome. THey didn't charge me for the missing dvd and sent another copy to make sure I had a chance to watch it. I love it and know alot of people who love it as well. I get a lot of choices and i have found movies that are old and hard to find elsewhere. I think you will fall in love with it as well. Its also cheaper than renting movies. I recommend it to anyone.

I have not tried netflix and I am wondering the same thing. We usually go to the local blockbuster. We usually go in for one movie and come out with three and never have time to watch all three. I think we are wasting money this way. Technically you can keep them a little longer but it would sure be nice to watch them at our own pace. I will be watching this post. Thanks for asking about this!

Thats another reason why i like netflix. you can hold on to movies as long as you want. I have weeks where I am busy and will have to end up waiting till the weekend. So it is one quality i like

I'm a netflix die-hard fan. I have been a member since 2003 and I adore their service. They seem to be getting better and better. I love the fact that I get my movies in the mail, keep it as long as I want without worrying about late fees, and conveniently drop it off the mailbox when I'm done. Furthermore, while waiting for my next movie, I can watch online through their Instant viewing feature. I can rate movies, give comments and share my queue with friends. They are also the only business I've dealt with that when things are well, the do roll-back prices. I've experienced that three tiimes with them. When they first opened a 3-disc membership was $21. After several months, they lowered it to like $19. There were 3 more occassions that happened. I just think the company is so cool, and the service is great. You will enjoy Netflix if you like movies, and don't like the hassle of driving to a video store all the time. Overall, I'm pretty contented with them and is not interested in changing to any other provider.

Good for you I tried out netflix for a few months and I liked it a lot. But I perfer blockbuster.com since you can easily just return the movies at blockbuster which is great especially if you dont feel like waiting a few days to see the movie and you dont live to far from blockbuster like I do.

I had to get Netflix because I took a documentary class. I did signed up this past February and I still have it. They are pretty quick about the turn around and it's nice not to have to go out and get a movie when it's cold out. I also love buying movies so this curbs my appetite for DVDs, I get to watch them before I go out and buy them. They will replace broken DVDs as well as DVDs that skip and don't play. They are very understanding. I know that you will like them and will enjoy watching movies. They also have instant play which is also nice because if you want to watch a movie right now you can check out their instant list and find something that suits your fancy.
