NetFlix

For the past 3 or 4 months I have been subscribed to Netflix. I must say I love Netflix. For those of you who don't know Netflix is an online video rental service where you pay $20 a month and get to check out 3 movies at a time. As soon as you mail back one of your movies they send out another one. You can hold onto the movie as long as you want as you won't get a new movie until you send the one your holding back.

A lot of rental places like Blockbuster have jumped on the monthly payment in order to compete but Netflix has one big advantage, selection. Blockbuster will have to stock new releases for all its stores and has a limited amount of space with the same movies in each space. This limits the selection of movies. Since Netflix is just a giant warehouse the do not have this problem allowing me to rent harder to find stuff like "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."

The site is a lot of fun, too. It allows you to rate their movies and then finds recommendations based on your rating. You can then create "friends" on Netflix which allows you to recommend movies and see what everyone else is watching so you know what fools they are for liking movies like "Dodgeball" and "Zoolander."

Since I don't watch TV (with the exception of the Daily Show once or twice a week) I find it works great. So, if you like to rent movies or anything really I highly recommend it. You can see my queue over in the right. I am also looking for more Netflix friends so if you have it or get shoot me an email through Netflix or normally.
