Netflix streaming content selection...
sucks arse. Everything I search for is DVD only. Not even new stuff. Very dissappointed. I can't say I see the value. I think I'll be sticking with blockbuster.

The red star is a guess as to what you would rate it based on the aggregate score and how you have rated other similar movies in the past. If you do not rate movies on Netflix then it is the just aggregate score of other Netflix users.

this is correct

They add stuff all the time. I just started Lost from the beginning! Still beats waiting 2-3 days for a DVD....

---

plus they're in HD..you cant get that from a dvd...

the op is an idiot if he thinks there's nothing good on netflix instant.

quote:

---

lol you can watch Lost for free on Hulu (at least seasons 1-5). I mean, you do have to sit through 2 minutes of commercials per 41 minute episode, but is that not worth it being free?

---

this was just one example of the awesomeness that is netflix hd.

i can download torrents of lost too..but why when i can watch netflix instant in HD on my TV.

hulu is fine in a pinch but i dont like watching tv on my pc unless i absolutely have to.

quote:

---

I'm just saying, if you pay for netflix so you can watch Lost you're a fricking retard.

---

I dunno, I think I hate commercials enough that $9 a month is worth it.

lol 2 minutes of commercial > $9?

spoken like someone who doesnt have a clue about netflix instant.
