I use Amazon Prime and Netflix. My local library also has a very good collection of movies.

RedBox. I use to get my DVD/Blu-ray movies from Netflix but there have been sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many crappy movies over the years that it's not even worth paying Netflix fees for DVD/Blu-ray anymore.

I haven't rented movies in a long time. I did the red box thing a few years ago, but I'm just too lazy to get up and take it back the next day LOL.

Netflix w/ blu-ray has served us well. And we download a lot of movies too from various sites.

Well, I see a big ol' hole here. Let's bring back the old video stores! Redbox only has new junk and I hate streaming my movies. Our library has crap all, and I don't want to build my own video library.I want to be able to pick out something I haven't seen in awhile, or maybe missed when it came out a year ago

We use video on demand if we want to rent. Mostly we just watch the free on demand movies that come with on cable if nothing is on, and we have nothing on the DVR. We rent maybe once or twice a year.

Netflix does provide that service. Their DVD/Blu-ray rental service. As far as video B&M stores, it's not coming back and we have no one to blame but ourselves. We stop going there and we put them out of business.

Netflix, but I'm thinking of just going digital through my cable company. It takes too long for Netflix to get the newer movies.
