Netflix has huge selection, but I don't want to dole out $15.99 a month.. so it really depends where you find value. I don't like Blockbuster at all, because they have MUCH less selection then Netflix, and I tried them for a while and couldn't get some of the movies I wanted to see. So.. if I were joining a program it would have to be netflix until blockbuster gets with the program. I like the whole idea of being able to return the films to their stores, but they limit that freedom dramatically. Hollywood video was great when we had a physical location. All the movies I wanted for $15 per month. (three at a time)..but I had to go to the location, but since it was right down the street I wasn't waiting 3 days for movies to arrive in the mail... ...Its a pickle I tells ya....

They have every movie possible and also a lot in Blu-Ray which is good for me. Now you can stream as well, doesn't get better than that. Easy decision for me, I love Netflix.
