I like Netflix.

$7.95 a month and I can stream over my broadband any show or movie I want.

Great value.

They need to get some better content deals in place but overall I'm really pleased with it. One side benefit is I've been recently studying the structure of stories, deconstructing films and books to see what makes them tick and how they flow. With netflix I have thousands of films at my disposal to scan through and note the key plot points, where they happen, how they get set up. Great tool for that.

On a side note, wow Hollywood sure is formulaic! Analyze one film, you've got them all (well, except for outliers like Pulp Fiction anyway)

My understanding is buffering remains a problem. What's been your experience?
