Ask yourself a couple of questions to determine which is right for you:
- Cost of each?
- How many videos does that include?
- Will I ever want to just run over to the store to return it to immediately get another one; or am I really only going to use the mail service? (this is the one big difference)
Good luck!

They're priced the same and have free 2 week trials so try each one. I'm a movie-holic so right now I have both of them. The movie selection is comparable, so far I've only found one dvd set that Netflix doesn't have but Blockbuster does (or at least they SAY they do, I've had it on my queue for 2 years and still have only got 3 discs of a 5 disc set). Netflix gets the movies to me so much faster, typically just one day, but that's because they're usually mailed from from the same city I live in. I've NEVER had to wait more than 4 days with Netflix. The closest Blockbuster distribution center to me is about 200 miles away and those movies always take a minimum of 3 days to get to me, I've had a few that have taken a full 7 or 8 days. I do like the Total Access part of Blockbuster, it's almost like doubling my movies but if I factor in the longer mailing time then Netflix is still about equal.

I really like Blockbuster because you can return them to the store
and not have to wait to get new ones. But I haven't used Netflix so. This is kinda one sided. Sorry!

I say that they're both GREAT, but it depends what you want. I have Netflix and luv it but my best friend has Blockbuster and she says it rox so i guess it depends...

Netflix. we've been using it for years, and we love it. sometimes you have to wait for a certain movie, but , the same thing happens with block buster.
