I started with Netflix about 6 months ago.
I can stream and DVDs, without commercials, rather than have the repetitious same-ole movies on extended cable. [How many times can cable play Men in Black or Independence Day in a single year? Answer dozens and dozens.]
Even with their recent $1 increase in the 2-DVD’s + unlimited streaming pricing, Netflix is a good deal.
I bought the Roku box which allows me to stream direct to the TV.
Netflix’s streaming competition is primarily Hulu, which is struggling and overcharging with their HuluPlus [the Plus is Pay subscription PLUS still get interruptive commercials].
Have you tried Boxee?

I love Hulu BUT I pay the top price for Netflix. Get 3 DVD’s weekly but cannot stream anything without interruption.
I have called Netflix about this and had two differant answers. Neither were good. My provider is also confused.
