The reason I chose Netflix is because Blockbuster used to edit the movies they rented. I don't know if they still do or not, but I prefer not to have my movies sanitized for my protection.
Umm, now I want to eat dinner at the Miracleborns!
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Despite my lovely dinner of a nice whole wheat pasta and green beans with a cream sauce and parmesan cheese, I now want Indian Food.

I love that Leif calls his stuffed animals "puffed" animals.

That would be a deal breaker for me. DH wants to try it not because it's cheaper (which it is) but because we could run to the Blockbuster store down the street and do a quick exchange if we hate the movie we're watching. I dunno. There is also free coupons for game rentals, too.
I'm just naturally predisposed to hate Blockbuster.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Does anyone here prefer Blockbuster's online service better than Netflix?
Cashmere, this blogger was with Netflix, got annoyed with "throttled" deliveries, and tried Blockbuster. He hated them more, and went back to Netflix.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I like Netflix. Never had any problem with deliveries. I usually get them the next day.
What is naan? The new cafe at work has started serving it, and I'm afraid of strange food.

I have been wondering if Blockbuster somehow limites the total number of rentals in a month, as Netflix claims it does not, but for me, clearly does. Other than that, the TV ads have been selling me, too. (Also, I am annoyed that Netflix screws with me, because I pay for MONTHS of service while I am working at the theatre without renting a single movie, but god forbid I suddenly watch, like 3 movies a night!)

Naan is awesome Indian bread. Kind of like pita with the air in the middle, but puffier. Really tasty.

We've never had an issue with delivery on Netflix. We can usually get next day delivery with the discs. Even the popular ones listed with waits I can get fast enough not to bother me.
And I like their online set up. But DH gets impatient if we get a film that we think is crap and then are stuck with it until we can mail it back. The idea of running to the video store for an exchange is tempting. But I suspect that somehow, BB would figure out how to screw it up.
Maybe I should start picking better films for our queue?

Sounds good. Maybe I'll try it.
