1. Good move
I rent a lot and return them a lot and then rent more.

Just to catch up on old series not worth buying at $20 per set.

9. I've been with Netflix
for two years. Have had only one problem and it was handled with no stress. I do not like their "new release" page on their site, though. I use www.onvideo.org to see the new releases and make movie selections for Netflix.

8. Wow...all of them? There aren't that many movies I want to see twice!
But I have been considering getting a DVD burner. I'll probably ask Santa for one; Christmas isn't that far away! :-)

14. disgusting
there are a lot of honest, hard-working people who make their living off of DVDs. I'm one of them.

7. Good move! I've been a member for years....
really enjoy it. I live in a very small town in south Mississippi, so the local video rental stores carry a very limited selection. Netflix has been a godsend.

11. Over 700 rentals from Netflix;only 2 problems.
And their membership actually went DOWN over the past 5 years.

12. I'd never have seen as many Bollywood/foreign films without Netflix.
For that reason alone, they're worth it. For some reason the "foreign" section at the local vid stores has always been slim pickings.

I also like the exercise videos (so you can see it without spending the money and discovering you hate it)...the documentaries...

Love it.

15. My wife likes silent & pre-code. Netflix has a lot
available, so it's worked out well for her. No real problems.
