After another week and a half of Blockbuster, I find Netflix to be considerably superior in every way except for price.

With coupons worth $9, the Blockbuster product only costs me $11 per month. But the problems are:

(1) an extra day in the mail each way (DVDs go back to Miami and I'm in the Tampa area);

(2) "short wait" for some of the most common DVDS in creation, stuff that has been out for years;

(3) the site doesn't give you as much info on the DVDs, so I have to go to imbd to decide whether I want to rent it; and

(4) site is slow, clunky and not as entertaining or useful as Netflix.
