I am not into their original shows. So bye
I assumed that Netflix had access to every movie ever put on DVD. I am glad I never joined.

I never have problems with Netflix. There are so many tv shows and movies, I'm not sure how one could get bored, unless you just watch constantly.

Hulu has improved a lot as well. Both are good deals at less then $10/mo. I only have Netflix. Either are better then cable or dish.

I wish that were the case!! they have a pre-determined # of movies and SLOOOOOOWLY rotate in new films and delete others. They never have new releases, 2 years is about as new at it gets.

It was great at first but then I kept waiting for new movies, waited, waited, yawned, unsubscribe.

2 years? Where are you even getting that number from? And you know that Netflix has to deal with the studios, right?

Cable is a scam. Any shows that I want to watch that air on cable I can own the day after the episode airs from Amazon. It's what I do with The Walking Dead. New episode airs on Sunday night, I buy the episode & watch Monday night. It's in my video library forever. No commercials. I can watch & rewatch as many times as I want for as long as I want. I have every season of Walking Dead in my library.

Yep, buying current episodes/seasons from Amazon would be way cheaper for me than paying for cable. There are only about a 6 cable series I watch: that means I'd only pay Amazon about $250 a year to watch all the episodes of all those series. Heck if I was a TV junkie, I could still buy season passes for 24 series from Amazon for less than $1000 a year.
~sigh, DH has to have his cable sports though.
