The ratio of bad to good movies being streamed is an absolute joke. See their top 100. LINK
Only seven stream. Ridiculous.

Yeah it could be better, but it also could be more expensive. I think I am paying like $7 a month.

Not much room to complain.


I use it to watch TV shows more than movies.

What is a better alternative?
I'm completely satisfied with watching all the tv shows and documentaries I can stand for 7 bucks a month

There is Hulu plus but I got a ps3 and I don't think it's on that. Got Netflix on tv, mine and gfs iPhone, and my tablet/laptop for 7 bucks = can't complain.

I could stack your queue with enough good movies to hold you over for a year I'm sure.

For $7.99/month, I think the selection is great. It's worth the TV series alone.

If you can't find something to watch on Netflix Instant, you have very limited taste in movies and TV shows.

I love seeing all the clueless people whine about Netflix's instant selection.

1. You are wrong. Netflix has a bunch of amazing movies, which you just probably haven't heard of because they weren't in last month's edition of mouth-breather magazine. If you are too lazy to look for them, feel free to watch Zoolander at amazon for $3.

2. The reason Netflix doesn't have many new releases is because the studios want to suck you dry. Instant costs $8 a month. Studios think they should get $10 for a single new 2-day rental. If you want to pay that, be my guest.

3. New releases are almost always terrible. When is the last time a blockbuster was also a decent movie?

Please shut up and never post again.

There's a definite correlation between the two. That's why I quit bothering to post links in the sticky thread.

Amazon Prime has really stepped up lately, and with being able to get free two day shipping as well as streaming movies and TV its easily a better deal than Netflix.

Will strongly consider canceling my streaming subscription once I'm through watching all seasons of 24.

Need to figure out the best way to get Amazon Prime streaming on my TV.

For TV series it's amazing. I watched the entirety of Party Down, Parks and Rec and am now into X-Filea. After that it's Breaking Bad. Not to mention I can watch them on my phone while sitting in the airport.
