Default Bolckbuster/NetFlix Poll

Right now I have Blockbuster Movie Pass and it is OK, but I am thinking about switching to Netflix. Blockbuster switched their plans around and now you get less movies for the same price.

Which do you people think is better?

I have had both and honestly the total access thing rocks if you're gonna take advantage of swapping out the movies in the stores... if you DON'T swap em out or don't have a store nearby I do know that netflix is faster.

I voted blockbuster.

I've got the Net Flix, don't care to go in to the store, do it all from my house,makemy list, get em in the mail, watch em, drive up to the mailboxand drop em in, 2 days later I get 2 more. The Net Flix that I have is pretty consistant, always on time and no problems.

I got Netflix and have some problems with the discs, but they have very good support. I actually am going to cancel my membership because I like going to the video store and watching my movie TODAY. I never think, "Geez, I'd sure like to watch that new movie in four days from now."

But blockbuster never have the new movies in when I want to see them. I haven't used either, know about both, but never bought into it yet.

On another note, does this "Block Buster Exclusive" **** anyone off? So if I want to see one of those movies, I have to buy it? WTF

I hate Blockbuster in general. Everytime I drive by their store, I get this funny feeling like I'm getting screwed for some reason.

I have blockbuster and take advantage of the total access, 3 movies in mail per day, and a free game rental per month from the store, which btw is like $8.99. They have a distribution center here in San Antonio so the turn around on my movies is only 1 day. So....me likes BB. And I had netflix before, and they didnt really do anything different.

Blockbuster is on my permanent boycottlist. Haven't rented there since the early 90's.
