Instant Streaming selection is excellent. Whens the last time you looked? Where else do you think you can go to stream anything? Besides random TV shows loaded with commercials...
I'm still a member but the wait times for discs have become extreme. I have 4 series of tv shows backed up in my queue because the discs aren't available "Long Wait". Chuck Season 2; Farscape Season 4; several movies which I know are sitting on people's coffee tables gathering dust ...
It's annoying and it seems like the either have fewer discs in circulation or have more members requesting discs then they are allocating resources towards meeting. It is rather annoying; not the point where I'd leave yet but it lowers my opinion of them.

reply to WeSRT4 I just got a Roku 2 weeks ago, Netflix at same time and I have to say I'm very happy, I'm wireless to downstairs 36' SD tv and the movies look great- no lag, tv shows and internet shows are also great- all on a 6m DSL. Thinking about getting another for HD set upstairs in bedroom as Roku is less trouble than watching thru PC.
reply to WeSRT4 Their streaming service is a joke. I've also gone back to Blockbuster. No 28-day wait. Plus the long wait times on new release Blu-Rays with Netflix are unbearable. It was nearly a month before I could get "2012" on Blu-Ray. Even "The Marine 2" was "Very Long Wait". Add to that the sales-window embargo and you're looking at 2-months before you can see a new release.
My local Blockbuster is always empty (good for me) and new releases are always in stock even on the Tuesday release.
