What says the hive about Netflix?  I signed up for the 1 month trail and am awaiting the disc for my PS3.

I like Netflix.

I love it. Use it all the time, on Xbox 360. Don't do too much of the mailing, but I watch a lot of movies online.

We've had the DVD service for about six months, and the disk for our Wii for about three months.  I like it a lot, wish more movies were being streamed.

It was necessary when I was in CA, middle of nowhere.  Don't use the mailing so much with the spread of Redbox like burning aides infested bushes...but the online availability of movies/TV is growing exponentially.

I like netflix, both DVD by mail and online streaming.

Just dropped the service because the Instantly Available movies to watch on PS3/Wii/PC were crap.  Selection is not worth it IMHO.

Been using the movie service for three or four months.  I like it.  We're down to one video store in this town and their selection is marginal at best.  Haven't done any online or games.

I have the two-at-a-time plan. I usually have one disc at home, and when I don't, I watch on my 360.



I approve. Though my only complaint so far has been the availability of the first disc of Breaking Bad. It's been at the top of my queue for about ten exchanges now and I haven't gotten it because Netflix doesn't have enough in stock.

I like it, I find netflix and OTA an acceptable alternative to paying for cable, and much cheaper.

I don't think it's worth it to do both, you end up seeing all the good movies on disk and then they come out on HBO or whatever and you're not interested in it.

I love it.  Haven't been to the video store since.

Ha...



Be aware the instant service changes on a regular basis and you may not keep what's in your Queue all the time.  With that said, almost every movie that comes on Starz now goes directly to streaming.  So if you are paying for the one disc at a time program with streaming, you get free Starz HD.



Or just a 1/3 price Starz vs Cable.  Showtime series also show up on instant so the only cable you will miss is HBO and they suck when it comes to partnering deals.

I dumped my Suddenlink Cable TV for netflix a year ago and haven't looked back.

At around 18 bucks the three disk out and streaming plan is a third of what I was paying for cable and now I'm not paying for Shopping channels and foreign language channels I don't use.

If I want to watch news or Glenn Beck I can easily stream them off the net.

This month I've been watching all three seasons of Deadwood by mail and Top Sniper II and Ken Burns The Civil War on streaming.

I don't do the DVDs by mail at all but I stream a ton of shit through my xbox and the internet.



Easily get more then my monthly cost out of it.

Wow, so has arfcom finally forgiven the owner for saying we should pay more taxes?  

I was looking for the insert from Glen Beck and I found this pic.


Remember this fattie?

Well worth it, IMHO.   I built a HTPC a couple months ago and have been collecting TV shows and have been ripping my DVDs to files on it.  Netflix supplements this quite well.  



I just wish some smart dude would write an XBMC plugin for Netflix.

I signed up recently, since it's summer and the kiddo is home a lot.  I don't have a television though, so she has to watch it on the computer.



We watched Auntie Mame last night.

We like it.  Have had the recent membership for the last year.  Really like the disk for the wii

I dont care for TV but having Netflix on my Wii is pretty handy if I actually want to watch something.

I liked it fine until they made that bullshit deal so they don't get new movies anymore. Since Hollywood video closed down, we don't have any options for renting movies besides redbox or netflix. And both of them have a month delay when a new movies hits the shelves. Fuckers.

I like it a lot. The HD instant streaming looks pretty good, and as said before the library is always growing. In fact there was an article today about how they just signed a deal with another company to get more new movies on it.

Same here.  More of the wife's "thing" though as I get all my entertainment through the webz.

If it opens up more movies streaming what's so bad with that?

You already waited 3-6 months for the thing to come out on dvd,if it was a "must see now" movie go to the theater.

It's about the only thing I use my XBOX360 for anymore.  Loves me some instant streaming movies.  
$4.95 a month for the movie I want to watch, when I want to watch?  Nicely done, Sirs.
