I really don't understand why so many people hate Netflix. I understand being bummed when HD-DVD got dropped, but that wasn't Netlix's fault and was inevitable. I think their pricing is reasonable. I get 4 at a time for $23 with my choice of any DVD. I don't know what blockbusters service is charging, but it's very similar, I'm sure. I rent about 20 movies a month. If I rented from a brick-and-mortar it would cost me $80 and I'd have a fraction of the choice. And I 98% of the time get my movies next day.
I'm not a Netflix fanboi, but I love their service. Is my experience so much different/better than the haters? I'm curious.
