Myself, I'm not to fond that Netflix's base price for 3 DVD's at a time @ $16.99 and Blockbusters is $15.99 for 3 at a time. The problem isn't the dollar,
the problem is Netflix charges me an extra $4 a month for Blu Ray, this went into effect a few weeks ago.
Now its $20.99 vs $15.99 at Blockbuster for unlimited 3 at a time DVD or Blu Ray.
Netflix charges an extra $4 per month if you want Blu Rays. Blockbuster does not charge extra.
To tell you the truth, I detest Blockbuster, but
I'm calling I just called Netflix and asking them to match Blockbusters price or waive the Blu Ray $4 a month fee or I'm heading to Blockbuster. Since I never use the Instant viewing (And never will until they stream HD content) it's no big deal. As of late, Blu Rays are taking to long to get to me from Netflix.
Well before I hit the submit this posts reply button I spoke with Netflix, Netflix said; they cannot waive the Blu Ray fee, so I just canceled the service. But I fully expect to get a
Come Back to Netflix at this discounted price...... The Netflix rep told me they be able to waive it in the future...Until then, I'll reluctantly switch to Blockbuster for 30 days.
If you subscribe to more than three at a time, the extra Blu Ray fee could be as much as $9 as shown below in the Netflix rates
