Re: Question about Netflix
Blockbuster Online is better:
Blockbuster knows movies! (Netflix is still new)
Pricing is better! Don't get sucked in by the ads saying you can get an account for $7/month! That is for a VERY limited account. For the typical account (3 movies at a time, no late fees, keep as long as you want, unlimited rentals) the prices are about the same.
In-store coupons. Blockbuster offers in-store coupons for FREE rentals (2 per month) so you can get your movies straight from the store if there is something you HAVE TO HAVE that day. Netflix doesn't have a store...
Instant viewing: You can download the movies and watch them on your PC
Better selection: I started with a Netflix account and switched to blockbuster because Netflix was FREQUENTLY all out of my best selections. Blockbuster is almost never out and has TONS to choose from.
Returns: You can return your online rentals to a physical store so they can be scanned immediately and your next movie(s) shipped out the same day!
Your current Blockbuster account is HAPPY with your online account and both can work together in harmony!
There are other advantages too! I suggest you compare them side by side for yourself. I'll never go back to Netflix (unless they do something DRASTIC that I can't pass up on, but with the competition form Blockbuster, I doubt they'll ever be able to afford it).
