I've been switching between netflix and blockbuster for years,When one raises there rates, add or remove features.They both are guilty of throttling.They both have the same pattern,you will get any movie release the next day and they will receive them within the next day.Blockbuster at the beginning will have received movies and shipped movies in your queue on the same day,but that won't last after the trial period it goes back to the same pace as netflix.

Highly Ranked

The trick with blockbuster is you have to return your movies by noon and you will 99% always get your new movies the next day

I can never complain about blockbuster with total access i get double the movies i would get from netflix for less (I was grandfathered in with my cheaper price) and i get 2 game (or Movie) rentals a month on top of each time i reutrn movies from the mail , and even my small local BB has about 50 different blurays and more each week
