    Isn't Blockbuster about to file for bankruptcy? Why would I join their online service knowing this?

    #1, as soon as you open the link, right underneath the layout of the different plans they offer, at the bottom right there is a "Promotional Code" link where you enter the above code.

    #2, I don't imagine bankruptcy would effect Blockbuster's ability to ship out movies & games to you. If they go bankrupt then the service ends and you're back where you started without a problem.

    Way better deal than Gamefly but for just movies I'll still take Netflix solely because of Instant Streaming.

    Blockbuster is doing on demand service similar to netflix. May not be as good or as vast a selection as netflix, but I imagine every new release is available. I personally have not used either, but as a member of blockbuster for years now, i know it does exist.

    #4, I am aware that it exists, but to my knowledge you have to have a specific device to enable it. I know they signed a deal with Tivo a couple years back, where all Tivo devices were able to stream Blockbuster movies, but it isn't integrated with PS3, Xbox 360 or Wii like Netflix is. I like the ability to watch HD streaming movies on my 46" HD TV rather than my 22" computer monitor.
