| Blockbuster only for shipped discs I am a Dish customer and have been using this Blockbuster service only for DVDs and Blu-Rays shipped directly to my home.
In my experience I gave up on their streaming service way back at the beginning. The interface for locating and choosing movies was just horrible, especially after I was spoiled by Netflix's much cleaner and user-friendly interface.
If there were one area where Dish needed to spend money, it was in a significant overhaul of that interface.
Hopefully Dish keeps the disc-to-home service, because it is a viable alternative to Netflix's comparable offering. |

| I agree. Though as a Dish/Blockbuster subscriber, we weren't allowed access to Blockbuster streams. Though we could goto www.dishonline.com and stream anything that we subscribed to through Dish. But all Dish online is, is a reskinned Hulu [or so it feels].
So all we get are DVDs and games from the Blockbuster mail service.
Before I was paying for gamefly/netflix. Gamefly is 16 bucks a month, long turn around time.
Now I get blockbuster/netflix. Blockbuster through dish 10 bucks a month, better turn around then gamefly and I can get movies or games.

FULLY AGREED - Ergen has no fuckin clue about this whatsoever, I hope he keeps his stupid old shaky hands off of my mail-based service.
For shipped Blu-Rays and DVDs Blockbuster is GREAT, much nicer than Netflix. |
