Netflix Blu-ray and DVD rental

Just like DVR (Tivo) changed the way millions watched TV, Netflix will change the way you rent DVDs. Over the years, I'm sure that I have given Blockbuster tons of cash, so much so that I could have bought my Blu-ray player I'm sure. With all of the new features being added (like being able to watch movies from your computer), I will be amazed if ten years from now, any brick and mortar video rental stores will be around.

Well, since I signed up with Netflix, I don't give to the late fee charity anymore. I signed up for the two week trial where I can have 3 DVDs out at a time, and never looked back. My wife and I then decided to switch to the two out at a time plan, because we didn't have time to watch that many movies. That also took our monthly rate from $16.99 to $13.99. Even if you are really strapped for time and cash, you can get the one DVD out at a time plan (two a month) for $4.99 a month.

There is no reason not to at least try netflix!

The monthly service charges are great (about the price of a DVD from Walmart), and I don't have to worry about making the six mile roundtrip just to return a movie. (Especially with these gas prices latley!!)

After I place a movie in the mailbox for return, I usually receive the new one within two to three days. Netflix has warehouses all across the US, so delivery time is drastically reduced.

All in all, I tell everyone I know to sign up. I love Netflix, and even when I adjust the budget I make sure that there is room for Netflix. The service is exceptional, and it is a valuable source of entertainment.
