Just wondering how smart the population of CF really is. If you use Netflix, then I consider you smart. If not, you still have a chance to become smart.

Hurry. I need my Netflix stock to go up!!!!:wink:

Had it for long time. Best thing ever. Note - NW Iowa, Southeast SD area - they just opened a distribution office in Sioux Falls. I went from being able to get movies once a week to a two day turnover. I put discs in the mail yesterday and they shipped my new ones this morning and I'll have them tomorrow. I missed this since i moved out of Des Moines.

If you have been with them for awhile, it takes a bit longer to receive new releases. This is no importance to me, for I don't need to see something the minute it comes out on video. If it is a must have, then I purchase the disc and go about my rich life.

I am on the 3 disc plan. If my mailman is speedy and I get the ripped discs back in the mail before 5:30, I usually can get 9-12 movies a week. Combined with MactheRipper and Popcorn, my library is now officially huge.

Why does having been with them awhile make a difference? I've noticed every new movie I want has a long wait. That's getting annoying.

I was upset when they dropped their used dvd purchasing system. I understand why they did it sorta, but I liked being able to buy them cheap with free shipping.

Care to elaborate? I'm not sayin' you are wrong, but I want to know what the advantage is.


Im sure its the ability of walking into the store. But I also see that as a negative. I like to be able to stream my movies as well. I dont want to drive all the way to the store to get movies.

My wife and I have the 2 per month plan. We only pay $4.99 a month and we don't watch a ton of movies...but we enjoy this plan. It is so nice to just open the mailbox and have a movie, watch it when you have time and then put it back in the mailbox. Love it!

I've been considering this for some time. I live in Ankeny. How often can I turn DVD's around? I know it's a subscription but is there a contract like a cell phone or is it truly month to month.

No contract. The thing thats nice is that you can change your subscription at any time. During the summer we up it since no shows are on and during the winter, we lower it.
