I've been using Netflix for many years, I became a member not long after they started. I've been pretty happy with their service, their selection is excellent. However, I have noticed that sometimes it takes a little long for them to post that they received a DVD back, or to ship a new one out. There have been lawsuits over this, they called it "throttling".
Blockbuster now offers a similar system, pretty much a copy of Netflix. I don't like the way they copied Netflix's excellent idea, but that's life. Blockbuster has similar prices but they also offer a couple free DVD rentals from your local store which is very nice for on the spot renting which would be perfect tonight since there's nothing on TV and my next DVD from Netflix is 2 days away.
So who uses Blockbuster's mail service? How is it? Anything I should know before trying them out?
Thanks!
