Count me as one of the "complainers". I canceled my Netflix subscription this week and signed on with Blockbuster.

I had been waiting over a week for Redeye, 40 Year old Virgin, and one other.

I now have all three from Blockbuster. They may throttle me too and I will cancel with them if it happens. I had been a member of Netflix for about a year, am retired, and was a HEAVY user I guess. Tough shi*!

Same here. My wife has 4 herniated disks and a spinal fusion. We don't go out as much and prefer the comfort of our own home as opposed to that of theatres. We'll go to the Premeire Theatre for good, good movies, but otherwise we've built a custom viewing area at home with soft, comfortable recliners. We go through a lot of DVD's, it's our main source of media.

i quit netflix about a year ago because of their slowness. i had been returning the dvds to the actual post office on the return address, and it would still take netflix days to list them as returned.
i began to realize i was being ripped off, so i quit.

Not in this lifetime. Netflix will never get another dime from me. Blockbuster has my business now and if they turn out to be Netflix Lite, they'll go the way of the dodo bird too.

LOL

Heck I only live 8 miles from the nearest Blockbuster and I'm retired so, as the wife says, what in the heck else do you have to do. Drive your butt down there and pick out some movies.
