Is $12 the 2 DVD at a time option? I do the $9 for 1 DVD.

Netflix is incredible. I've been able to drop cable because of it, and it's awesome for blowing through TV shows. Can't recommend it enough.

EDIT: Oh, the $12 is 1 DVD + Blu Ray.

I pay $18.35 a month for 2 Blu-Rays unlimited. We've had it for almost three years (same time as we've had GameFly, which is the awesome equivalent of Netflix for video games), and love it.

Any old TV shows that we've missed (or premium ones on like HBO) we'll pull off of Netflix, and all current shows we'll stream through Hulu. Haven't had cable for almost a year.

The customer service generally sucks but their wide variety of options is impressive, even as they've been scaling down. The iPhone option is pretty much useless. It gobbles up battery life and you're watching it on your phone. I guess it'd work in a pinch, like at the airport during a layover or something. Beyond that... meh.

I pay about $22 a month for 3-at-a-time unlimited with blu-rays. Love it.

I did the same thing. Between getting disks in the mail and watching instant on my 360 as well as streaming random stuff on my computer, I don't need cable at all... though I do miss MLB Network.

Does it still cost $16.99 for 3 at a time? Because that's what I pay, but that seems like too much if you guys are paying $9 and $12.

They charge extra if you want to get Blu-Ray movies instead of standard DVDs.
