Blockbuster.com has their online rental service Free for your first month, then $10 per month for their 2-DVD plan, or $19.99 per month for their unlimited plan. You get unlimited online rentals (3 out at a time) with free shipping, no return dates. You also get 5 in-store movie exchanges/month.
Also if you look under OTHER plans, they have 2 out at a time mail order only but unlimited for like $13 a month. Plus if you use paypal for automatic monthly payments they credit your paypal account $25.
this sounds like a good deal. but I couldn't find the "other" plans.
Netflix has had quicker service and wider selections IMO
Blockbuster sucks...They are complete rodeo cowboy and their customer service is terrible...Use up their special offers and then go elsewhere, because whatever they offer you now they will change on you without your notice...
Waiting till they go back to unlimited in-store movie exchanges before I go back
whatever happened to netflix?
Netflix's selection is better (especially if you are into Anime. However, I'm still on Blockbuster because I'm still under the unlimited in-store exchange for $19.99.
Blockbuster will allow you to suspend you account for 1 or 3 months (look under my account). This is great if you are going on vacation and won't be around for several weeks.
In May 1/3 of my queue showed as long wait or very long wait for the last several months, so I suspended my account for 3 months. I picked 3 months because I was traveling for work & then had a vacation planned & really didn't have time to watch to many DVD's for a couple months. Figured by then they should have some more of the DVD's available.
After 3 months, almost every DVD is still listed as long wait or very long wait! Al least the store will finally have some new DVD's after 3 months.
good deal
Great rental service. Get all of my rentals within 2 days plus the store is less than a mile from me so exchange is easy and convenient. No problems here!
This was nice until both Blockbusters in my town closed down shop in the middle of the night and left. Now Netflix is better since the in store rental heist is no longer a bonus for me
the $10 plan limits you on the store exchanges>_< like netflix better, typically faster for me too. but i use blockbuster every now n then so i can get the coupon for free game rental:-D
I've been using blockbuster for a while now. I switched from netflix a year or so ago due to the online and in-store deals they have.
