Netflix vs. Blockbuster Online - Which is Better?

I saw the price hike as unjustified, and told myself that I was going to give Netflix 6 months to do something big or lose me as a customer. With 2 months to go, they have already revived the greatest show ever, and grown there streaming to include more modern videos. Am I extremely satisfied? Not yet. DVD offerings haven't expanded to new releases (mostly due to litigation), and whatever happened to them offering console games, which was a promise of Qwikster? Based on what they've done, will I be dropping them at the 6 month mark? No. I might extend the deadline a bit, but they've proven to me that dispute there missteps, they are still committed to their customers.

With so much success with the Kindle Fire, I wouldn't be surprise by next year Amazon will surpassed both. I still love Netflix though and still watching great shows on there.

I've been with Netflix for many, many years and have not flinched when they raised their prices. It is a good service and it still beats any other way to get physical discs to your house. When I crunch the numbers, I am paying about $2.00 a blu-ray disc, sometimes less depending if I watch the disc that day and return the next day. And while I can get a redbox for less, the boxes often don't have the disc I want and is not always convenient gas-wise. It also smears Vudu cost-wise.

I think the price hike was justified. It was a way to combat those who were sharing Netflix accounts. It's a shame that the majority had to suffer on account of the few, but this is America so....

They need more titles, that's it. Other than that current platform are good and reliable to use.

Netflix has more offerings than Hulu so its stands to reason they get more traffic. I am interesting in is what companies fold into the “other” category. Most notable YouTube – are they in the “other” category or do they not even register for long form content viewing?

Lost my business. One classic show won't capture my attention. I'm sure Netflix will make things better, but I'm not going to pay for something that doesn't exist. You just can't raise prices in America without adding something new or more. You have to bite the bullet. Maybe it would have sunk the ship, in which case I may have made the same mood. But I'm sure they expected to lose a lot of business. I just so happen to have 4 redbox locations in EVERY direction of my house so it's too bad for them. And I'm wasting less time on movies! Woo hoo! I can waste a little time on TechCrunch!
