I've been using it for a couple of months now, I just do the $9.99 plan one-at-a-time plan. I like the service pretty well. I watched Waking Life last night, I loved it.
My all-time favorite TV show was Mystery Science Theater 3000, and they have a whole bunch of episodes, you don't find anything like that at the brick-and-mortar movie rental places.

I've been using netflix for about a year now. I love it!
Some films I've seen since joining netflix that I probably wouldn't have otherwise:
Citizen Cane
Mean Girls
The Wicker Man
Freaky Friday
A Tale of Two Sisters (The most frightening film I've seen in a very, very long time. Think The Ring, or The Grudge on a very bad acid trip.)
The Dune and Children of Dune miniseries
The entire Farscape series
The Firefly series

I don't like the idea of Netflix only because if I want to rent a movie I want to rent it then and there, I don't like the waiting period of the mail. There are lots of different movie rental places here to chose from instead.

I hate blockbuster as well. I will never rent from them again.
We only rent from 2 local stores. one is owned by the sole employee and is good for new releases and games. The other is a bit bigger and great for independant and quirky films.
Netflix sounds interesting thou.

I love Netflix. Especially in the winter. That is alot of what the kids and I do for entertainment when the snow starts to fly here in New England. Get in the habit of sending back the movies you watch immediately that way you always have a new movie to watch.
