I've had NF for a few years now. Seems their access to content is getting tougher and their selection is less than it was b-4. We only have the streaming service (8usd) and I am not all that happy w/ the steaming only selection.

Not sure there is a best one of the bunch.. I think the "all you can stream at one low price" model is getting long in the cycle as other streaming competitors come online and secure their own content.

A combination of a few services will be the solution for us. We use Hulu Plus, Netflix and will add Amazon. That should cover most of our viewing needed.. I suspect.

Watch for SimpleTV ( a KickStarter) startup. They are making a streaming device for OTA (Over the air broadcasting) that acts as an unlimited DVR function too. Similar to TIVO... All that is needed is a good antenna and you get full 1080 free. This will provide locals and sports access. Very cool. Pricing will be 99 bucks for the one time device cost and a small fee monthly for DVR and Guide features.

simple.tv

We are funding this startup... Looking forward to it.
