I started using Netflix on November 21st, and thought it might be appropriate to provide a review. I’m using their three-out-at-a-time program ($19.50/month as of account activation, dropping to $17.99/month at the end of my current billing cycle). I figured this might be cheaper than trying to rent all these movies through the local Blockbuster. I’ve managed to rent quite a few movies this month:
Overall, with 11 movies rented during this time period, the cost comes to $1.77 per DVD rented, much cheaper than Blockbuster stores (which averages $3 to $4 per rental, if not more). Overall, the service is great, and due to the closeness of the nearest Netflix repository — which, for me, is in Tacoma, about 30 minutes north — I get my new DVDs the day after they ship. Great service, highly recommended.
