Which do you prefer, all the episodes at once or one a week?

With Netflix's model being to dump all the episodes at once so people can binge watch instead of dragging out a season over a few months.

Each method has its merits.

With the dump and binge method there is a certain time efficiency where you get it all in. It's a parallel to the changes in society with our instant access to everything in the internet information age.

You get the flash, the avalanche of interest, all the things that come with a viral sensation but then it all goes away as there's nothing left to feed the fire.

The thread here on Maing a Murderer has ground to a halt leading others to think it's not been discussed.

Releasing an episode a week can be a long ardous task and tough to keep consumers on the hook wanting and demanding more. However, the slow burn gives time for people to discuss at work, w/ friends and everyone is one the same timeline with the story arc. No "oh just wait until episode 7", when you're only on #3. That takes away something from the social interaction that everyone enjoyed 30 years ago.

It was hard for me to watch all of Making a Murderer in a week. I gave up a lot of sleep to do it, not sure I'd do that again though. I have a buddy that only watches tv shows when he can buy complete seasons on DVD. I don't get it. Which do you guys like best?
