Blockbuster Online vs. Netflix

Can I ask a question about Netflix? Why would you get Netflix when Blockbuster Online is just as good plus you can trade the movies you get online for free ones in the store. You end up paying nothing with the free in-store rentals.

NetFlix is a better company that treats its customers very well. Blockbuster, not so much. Plus, Blockbuster is pretty much going out of business.

In-store? You mean I'd have to leave my house? Hell on that.

Even finding a Blockbuster store is difficult these days... and Blockbuster limits how many times you can do that before you have to pay more. With Netflix you don't even have to go the store, you can watch online, 24/7 for what you pay per month.
Not to mention how terrible Blockbuster's customer service is in comparison to Netflix.

Netflix gave me 10% off one time because I kept saying the quality of the instant movies was shitty

can't speak for netflix, but I had BB on line and finally cancelled after having it a year or so. It used to be great, but it got to be that I'd have to wait 1-2 weeks for a movie. I guess they reduced their inventories, because it seemed like every move that came out was on back order. Got tired of waiting.
To netflix subscribers, are they better in this regard?

1. You're not getting free rentals, you're still paying for the service.
2. Isn't the whole point of the service to get movies delivered via mail and NOT have to go to the store ?

The netflix streaming, what is the selection like? Pretty much everything you can rent??

true, but netflix is better if you have xbox or ps3. Also blockbusters are closing all over the country.
