I read the article too...and felt the same way that bubblegum felt.......We have TONS of stuff on our queues on both Netflix and Blockbuster so even if we don't get the newer things as quickly as we'd like we've still got tons of stuff coming....plus now BB gives us 4 free rentals, one a week........I'm still hooked on the fact that it's way cheaper and so much more easier than trying to fight the lines at the BB store to get movies for the weekend.

yes I did read that-and yes I must admit were one of those customers that are being throttled.  Why?  Because we return the movies as fast as we watch them.  :(  Yet we really have no plans to cancel right now.  Yes it bites that for the new releases we get throw to the back of the line and yes we do have shipping delays as well for some of our movies.  However, at 19.57 a month for 10-13 movies and no late fees is a great bargin for us since we on a limited income.  It equals out still to about $1.00-$1.50 per movie.  Which is a great bargin since we can take our time watching it once we get it and don't have to worry about late fees.  Before Netflix, we'd watch maybe 4 or 5 movies a month and pay at least $25-30 a month in rentals and late fees because we forgot to return them until a day after they were due.  So for now, until something bigger better and badder comes along, were keeping netflix.  Blockbuster? well...I wasn't to impressed with them and still am not.

How long is your netflix list?  Mine has 497 movies on it and hubbys has 499 so we got a lot of movies to watch.  The tv series adds up quick though

We've got about 75 on our list..most of them being TV shows and a couple of movies

I pay $19.07 a month.  I can have out 3 movies at one time.  Dependin on how fast you sit down and watch the movie after you get it, you can go through many movies.  I get the new releases rather quick.  I always put them in my queue as soon as I know they are coming out.

Hope this helps.

I have been using Netflix for about 2 years....I love it!!

Never a problem and I get to see around 7-10 movies a month.

Kids love it to.



how much you paying to get  7-10 movie per month... also are those new releases or older junk... I just left  Netlfix cause they sent me nothing but old junkie movies

I added Flightplan last week as soon as it came out and it said "short wait" which they define as 1-2 weeks.  They only send you what you have placed in your queue list.

with me I have all the new realeases at the top of my list followed by my older favorites and TV series, that way I always get something I like. I pay 19.57 a month for 3 at a time plan, which is about 20 movies a month and about a dollar a movie.
