We love Netflix, so convenient and such a bargain. I love that there are no hidden/late fees and that their turnaround times are so quick. They also have every movie I've ever wanted to watch, unlike the video stores, library or Redbox. We get 3 movies at a time, so I've usually got one or two DVDs at home while another is in transit.
And as a side note, I feel like Blockbuster took advantage when they were the only game in town, charging exorbitant late fees. Now that there are so many other options, I choose to use a more customer-friendly company for DVD rentals.
Lisake,I will agree that Netflix is a bargain.
When we rented videos from Hollywood, we could get 3 videos for 4 nights for $15 versus Netflix where I can get around 8 movies a month for $15. Plus they have a lot of the movies I want.
I just figured I could save my $15 and get my movies from the library. I found myself rushing to watch my movies (and that wasn't any fun) and with the library, I have two weeks with every movie.
whatnow, I said in a later post that my library has 90% of the movies I want. There have been movies I've found through my library system that Netflix doesn't have and there have been a few movies Netflix has that my library doesn't. I just don't think it's worth the $15 for those few movies.
I don't mind watching movies online but my internet isn't SUPER fast so while a movie may be 90 minutes, it might take me 2 hours and 30 minutes to watch it all.
I realize libraries can only offer so much but my library system offers quite a bit. To each their own. No need to get defensive.
I always buy movies online or in-store.
I dont rent, but my brother has a Net-flix membership, so I'm taking advantage of that now and asking him to get me movies.
And I also watch movies online; I can recommend sites if anyone wants to know some
