Netflix or Blockbuster Total Access?

Re: Netflix or Blockbuster Total Access?

There's no question...if you have a BB remotely close to you it's BB all the way. I rarely have a problem getting a new movie in the mail. However, in the rare case I do, I return a movie I got in the mail into the store to get it right from the store--for free. I've never gone to a store location where they were out of a new movie I wanted. With total access, you're practically guaranteed to always have the newest stuff, whether you get it in the mail or in the store.

Another reason I like this is if you get an urge to watch something (old or new) you can take one of the movies you got in the mail to the store (or use a coupon) to go get a free one from the store.

I really think this is going to put a big hurt on Netflix...this was a great move by BB.

I agree, this will run NetFlix down bigtime. I get 3 movies, watch them during the week, return them to the store on Thursday, get 3 new movies, then usually I get 2, sometimes 3 movies on Saturday night for the following week. I've calculated I can get about 36-40 movies a month this way, all for $17.99 a month, that's an incredible deal. The only thing is having the time to view all those movies, LOL!

I get 2 free rental coupons a month from BB, they can be used for either movies or games too.

Right now, I like Netflix because they have a bigger foreign section.

Speaking of foreign movies..have you seen Tae Guk Gi: Brotherhood of War yet?

Re: Netflix or Blockbuster Total Access?

Okay, I'm bumping this because the wife and I made a DUMB purchase by buying an HDTV and Blu-ray player in the middle of her pregnancy. So to ease the pain and stress, we're thinking about which one would be most convenient and worth the money. Which one would you guys recommend? What is it like for both? What are the basic prices adn plans for both? If anyone has any other wild card companies that might be better, please let me know. I'm all ears......
