I'm going to try the 8-at-a-time Netflix plan for a while.

Some days, I wish there were a 12-at-a-time plan.

Today is one of those days.

dude, foreals??? that's hardcore. you should just get the instant play device that they're selling.

very few of the movies that they have are actually offered on instant streaming, sadly.

it is really cool to have, but just know that not all the movies are available.

look through the "instant queue" or whatever section on your computer before you decide to buy it.

i have a tivo that has the netflix streaming capability, so i dont need the roku, but i bought the roku for my mom. she LOVES it, even with the limited selection.

yeah I have On Demand so there's no dearth of stuff to watch, and I have Netflix for foreign movies that my frenz love to recommend :P I just thought their Instant Play selection would be better if you actually had your own device.

gosh. i have the ONE at a time because it takes me weeks to get around to watching that one movie. i guess i am just not a huge movie person.

If you have an XBox 360 & Gold XBL account, or a compatible TiVo, then its an amazing perk to pipe your Netflix through it.

To actually purchase a separate cheaper device that will let you do it? Total let down.

4 still fits me perfectly! Glad I upgraded from 3 though.

I want the box, but that's 100 bucks all at once. Bumping up the amount of DVDs I get by 2 is a small, short-term increase.

Oh man, I had that when I first went on sick leave. It was so ossum. I'd try to time it so that I saw stuff at a rate that made me ready for the next movie juuuuust about when I had to take the old ones out for the mailman, who'd be dropping off new ones.

Score.
