Anyone else here try out netflix yet?


Just started using this service, its pretty darn cool, if you really like to rent movies. you can have up to 3 movies at a time and when you send them back you get more that are on your list, you can send them back whenever you want without penalty but the longer you wait the less movies you get a month for your money. it costs about 20 bucks a month, when i send an order in I generally have my next choices within a day,beats driving too blockbuster or another video store all the time, and a heck of alot cheaper.

Welcome to 5 years ago

Just kidding.

I've used Netflix since '99 and have always been happy with the service. I know that many people on the board use Netflix for their rental provider, but I'm sure there's someone who hasn't heard of them.

You're post will probably be moved to the Studio/Manufacturer Forum. That's probably where it belongs.

Welcome to the forum

New to this part of town aren't you? . I don't think there is anyone on HTF who hasn't heard of netflix. I have been a subscriber myself for 4 years now (although on and off).

Welcome to HTF.

Yeah, Blockbuster must be losing a lot of business. Today, it introduced its $2 per day rental fee with a next day midnight deadline. Its a good deal, especially if one knows they can get around to watching their rentals the day they take it out. But they still cannot beat Netflix's selections.

There are numerous Netflix threads in the Retail and Wholesale Vendors Feedback forum. The Movies forum is for discussion of the films themselves. Complete forum descriptions are available on the main forum page.
