i love this service. new release movies for a $1. it's great for a college student like myself. when i make that usual trip to Wal-Mart for supplies i can pick up a movie for one measly dollar. and it's not like it's out of the way or anything, i go past the Wal-Mart every day and can afford to take the 20 seconds it takes to return the movie when im done. plus you can even reserve a movie online before you actually go to the store to be absolutely sure it will be there when you go look for it. its always a pretty busy place whenever i go past one (whether i get a movie or not).

i dont know how big the service can get but i hope it sticks around. the only downside i can see to the whole thing is the lack of space for a back catalog. there seems to only be new release movies in there, so what if i want to watch an old movie a friend told me about that i hadn't seen? other than that, the service is absolutely great.
