Not only am I a satisfied customer, I'm a shareholder and my unrealized gains so far more than make up for the monthly fee. Another good way to enjoy NetFlix is to invest in the company.

Good choreography. Just saw "Once More With Feeling," too. Quality stuff...I was glad that it added depth to the plot as well as being all around fun. Like you and your Netflix, I've taken the chance with my post in the Audio-Visual branch of our library once a week to get to know some classics.

I haven't been to a Blockbuster in months, and I'm spending a fraction of the $ on DVDs that I used to spend. Not only are DVDs cheaper at Netflix, but I don't have to spend money on late fees, the gas it takes to drive to the video store, and all of the temptations to buy popcorn, soda and for-sale DVDs that Blockbuster offers. And just for the record, "he had it coming" wasn't the message of Chicago. That song is clearly meant to be ironic, showing the absurd way that the "murderesses" rationalized their crimes.

It's free and it has a queue as well. The selection is not as great though. We used to have netflix, but then we converted to the local library. It’s free and it has a queue as well.

They have tons of stuff on there, and it is a great way to get caught up on the classics, both in the movie genre and in TV episodes. As long as you have broadband Internet, you can take full advantage of the service. In my case, I've been watching Heroes (since I never had time to watch it when it originally aired) and I've saved myself from renting a few comedies at my local Redbox. What I do now that I have Netflix is browse online for potential Redbox flicks to rent. Next I check and see if my choices are available on Netflix live. I watch those online and any that are not available are usually picked up using free rental codes from insideredbox.com. I figure why waste a free rental code (or $1 plus tax) on a movie I can watch at no additional charge on a service I'm already paying for.

I've actually got it on hold currently while I get some projects wrapped up, but I can't wait to go back to it!

It is so convenient. Since I never go out to the movies, I especially love that I can "save" new releases before they come out on DVD so that they will automatically be added to my queue.
