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?

The only way to get your moneys worth, is if you get your mail early, watch the movie, and are able to get it to a late pickup mail box the same day.
This way you can get 3 shipments a week instead of 2
