| once again Once again, those of us not IN THE CITY will be crapped on by yet another company. Those of us not in town benefit greatly from netflix's movie rental service.. Ya know.. To save cost on running to town. Now we have to wait 30 days for new release's?!? Its not like we can take advantage of the streaming ability being we have been deemed unprofitable by the death start and comcast. Its a lose lose situation for a chunk of us! Why don't they just start air raids on outer parameter communities and be done with it! |

Especially sense your monthly fee will still be the same, and you already resisted the big screen fees, let alone having to walk by the isles in stores with it jumping out at you everywhere, and to top it off. Everyone will be talking about the freaking movie.. Yeah.. Its important.. Maybe not to you, but you probably have access to everything you want. So the F. U I got mine mentality speaks clearly |

'For me, I don't know the last time I walked the aisles looking for a movie. I just put the title on my Netlix list and it shows up. If it's a movie i really want, I will just purchase it online. |

Now that Netflix offers HD streaming, there's finally some value to that aspect of my subscription. So much so that I'm seriously considering dropping satellite and just going broadband, antenna, and Netflix. |

LOL... I do the same thing. Movie comes out on theaters and I go "That looks like a sweet movie. I'll put it on my list"...
My motto is If I don't care enough to watch in the theaters, I don't care enough to worry about an extra month's wait.
And considering the price of a ticket nowadays, I don't care enough to watch anything in the theaters. One theater ticket = one or more month(s) subscription to Netflix |

When 30 days is more than you can stand, use redbox and get it for $1 per day. I do that once in a while, but normally I can easily wait until it is delivered.
The money i save in popcorn pays for netflix.
I (or my kids) have a Roku, PS3, Wii and some computers all able to watch netflix. Just need Linux support! |

If Neflix should start getting access to the same content as HBO, et. al, why would anyone subscribe to premium channels through the cable companies? |

Redbox is subjected to the 28 day delay too  Another off my list unfortunately |
