Netflix?

[cicer]

I am one of the last holdouts, one of the people who has never used Netflix. But right now, there a really a lot of DVDs that I'd love to see that I have no other way of getting ahold of. And I'm really not willing to shell out the money to buy these things, because a) that's way too expensive and b) I'm not even sure I'll like them that much. So I'm thinking about signing up.

I'm a little uncertain about this, so I'm appealing to those of you who are or were members. Did you like it? Would you recommend it? Is a it a good deal, a good service? Let me know.

they will deliberately slow up your service and give you less priority than more profitable customers. It's in their TOS that they can/will do this.

YES. I'm definitely experiencing that, too. (I think I first read about that after the lawsuit thing, and it was kind of a revelation. "So /that's/ why my films are taking so long... I used to get them so quickly... *facepalm*) It kind of sours me on the Netflix experience. :/

But yeah, otherwise... I guess it's a pretty convenient service. ;)

Huh. I'm glad to hear about this whole deliberate-slowing-down thing. That really sucks. I'll have to think about it.
