DrewEckhardt 0 #28 August 5, 2008 Quote Hmmm....that's not good. Are there no recent or fairly new movies? For only $8.99 a month you're getting the on-line equivalent of basic cable although it's less expensive and you don't have commercials. If you want newer material you'll need to use Amazon's Unbox which is more like pay-per view, with new material running $1.99-$3.99. You could just get a DVD subscription and plan ahead.

boinky 0 #30 August 5, 2008 Is the unbox $1.99-$3.99 per movie? If so...that won't do at all! Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts? (RIP Buzz) Yep, you're a postwhore-billyvance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrewEckhardt 0 #31 August 5, 2008 Quote Is the unbox $1.99-$3.99 per movie? If so...that won't do at all! Yes. That's what you pay for the convienience of having the newest movies and TV shows sent directly to your computer, without waiting for the postman, without sitting through commercials. Personally, I figure that if something is good enough to be worth watching it's good enough to wait for the DVD to be released, manufactured, and shipped to the mailbox nailed to the wall next to my front door. When I suddenly decide I want to watch something it can wait the 2-3 days it takes to return something to Netflix and get a new DVD. We're down to 351 discs in the Netflix queue and 24 in the saved list (mostly older films they've run out of, although there are five series we've been watching after they've been on television and Unbox) If you have a computer with a DVD drive you could even break the law, rip the DVDs, and send them back to Netflix so you can watch them while the next DVD is in the mail.

normiss 806 #32 August 5, 2008 I too like the Netflix option. I do the 3 at a time plan...$17 a month. I can hardly keep up with the movies as it is and this works very nice. Add the ability to view now when the cycle is a few days deep and it just seems the most cost effective, convenient and legal option there is. Six Feet Under season 3 arrived today...

Rdutch 0 #33 August 6, 2008 Quote I'm looking at their 1 movie out $8.99 plan. I'm more interested in their unlimited online program, though, which is included. What can you tell me about it? Good or bad? Download anydvd, and clone dvd. Get the netflix 3 for $17 copy the movies and mail them off, I get 9 dvds a week and watch them whenever I want. Of course you get a lot of crappy movies you wont want to watch again this way. Ray Small and fast what every girl dreams of! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riddler 0 #34 August 6, 2008 QuoteWhat can you tell me about it? Good or bad? Definitely keep in mind that it is not compatible with Mac, and it only works on IE6 (or higher). At least last time I tried to run it on a Mac, I couldn't. Other than that, it works pretty well, but you're only going to find about 15% of the movies are available (the list is growing) for immediate play.Trapped on the surface of a sphere.
