Anyone Else Use Netflix?

So far so good.

Not bad for the price.

Had it for a few years now, and love it.

 It helped get me hooked on Babylon 5 for example a few years back. Oh and Brit coms, I loves me some brit coms.

Yes,
We use it through our Wii and since we got it we have dropped all of our premium channels on cable.

We use it here, connected to our wireless network...it's great when the grandkids are here, the variety of shows is great, and we can choose what we want them to see.

We have used it for almost a year now. We dropped our cable service (we don't get any TV over the air).
Why it beats cable/satellite:
     No commercials
     Less than have the price of basic cable
     With some planning, Watch what you want, when you want
     DVD quality video at no extra cost
     No commitment, quit/restart/change your plan any time.
     Reliable
     No commercials!

Use it here!

with Spirialling costs going out of control, and full access cable vs full access netflix at 20x the price I will be dumping cable next. For the few shows I watch on it, and most of it seems to be repeats I really don't see the point of it anymore. The Internet now supplies TV shows, movies, better news, and multiple ways to communicate for less price.

On the down side providers are now looking at charging for the bandwidth you use by megabit
People always said they wanted the government to listen to them and now the government is listening, taking notes and names...and coming to see you soon!

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.
