...So how happy is everyone with Blockbuster’s service? Comparable to Netflix? Better?...

I've used Blockbuster's mail service for several years now and am happy with it. I can't compare BB to Netflix as I've never used Netflix.

The nice thing about BB is you can take your movie back to a local BB store and swap it for another title if you don't want to wait for your next one in the mail. This also comes in handy if the DVD gets damaged in transit. I've had several arrive cracked and all I had to do was return it to a local BB store and swap it.

The only complaint I have with BB is they don't display all the new releases in a convenient manner on their website. They have the titles but you have to search sometimes. I go to Rotten Tomatoes and find all the new ones then go back to BB.

I've never had Netfix but I can say Blockbusters is great. I can take the ones we received through the mail to the local store and get three more at no charge. Meanwhile you can get three more sent to you in the mail. Plus once a month we receive Internet coupons for two free rentals, games or movies.

I have been using Netflix since 2000 and like it. I know they SLOW you down if you watch too many. I only mail 2 a week most weeks now anyway and get new releases over 90% of the time when they are first available.

I am on the 4 at a time plan. I was on 3 at a time plan and rarely got new releases on that one.
