I'm sure this has been brought up before, but I was just curious about what everybody is looking forward to seeing from their respective internet rental accounts. I figure top ten should be fine, as people with full 500 disc queues would be at this all day.  :tongueout:


You have both services?  Are there things on Blockbuster you can't get on Netflix or something?  (You do know if want MORE movies, they've got other plans on Netflix than the three at a time one, right?)

Just curious.

There are indeed movies available in either inventory that aren't available on both services. Additionally, even for the movies that are available from both, if there's something on one that's listed as "very long wait" or "coming soon", more often than not I find it immediately available through the other service. Example: I wanted Horrors of Malformed Men from Blockbuster, but they list it as "Coming Soon" whereas NetFlix had it ready to ship that day. It works both ways though. I've been with NetFlix a while now, but ever since moving a block or two away from one of the world's few great Blockbuster stores, I couldn't pass up the "return your movies to the store and get free rentals for them" service, along with one free video game rental each month. Also, I get to benefit from NetFlix's recent attempt to take back lost customers to Blockbuster by offering 17 hours of free streaming movies online each month.

Anyway, yeah, that's why I use both services.  :teddyr:
