The way they screw you with the DVD-by-mail is they've just upped the prices; it's now $15/month for 2 out at a time. Well, even if you stagger them, there's usually a 3 day lapse.

Day 1) send it back
Day 2) arrival
Day 3) new one ships

So, you may get 4 DVDs out a week - which seems like a bit, but who is going to use it every day, anyhow?
Yup, this. More or less Netflix in the US is a bunch of retarded fucking indie flicks, some tv series and a bunch of foreign shit I could care less about. All first rate movies are DVD only. I have a Redbox/Blockbuster box on the corner I can rent DVDs out for a dollar a night.

They can keep their streaming garbage.
