Now that the last of the Blockbusters (and the like) have closed, and Netflix only streams a limited number of titles, and Redbox only has newer movies, where do you rent your movies?

I don't. We sometimes go to the library, or I just buy the DVD. You can get most titles for about 5 bucks on EBay or Amazon these days, and then we just have the disc.

Online, Amazon, Netflix, and Uverse, not happy with any. Amazon is marginally the best of the three. Netflix is a major fail.

I use Netflix by mail. We don't watch over the computer but just get the disk and watch it on our TV. We cancelled for a couple of years when they doubled the price from $7.99 a month to $16 but then they went back to the old price and we joined again.. I like it because of the wide selection - old, new and documentaries we wouldn't otherwise know about. Redbox is limited to new things.

$12 a month from Netflix...gets ya 2 at a time...on my big Flat screen...
I'm old fashioned and would find it a bother to hook up my laptop to the TVs.
I hardly finish the 2 in a week...esp if they are HBO/SHO series with 4
episodes on each.

I don't often rent, but when I do, it's Redbox. Keep watching my friends.
