Okay, I know it's nothing revolutionary but I have finally decided to try out Netflix for the first time. I'm on my month's trial because I'm about to get rid of Cable TV.
I didn't expect much in the way of a/v quality obviously... but I didn't realize how bad it would actually be. Does anyone actually use this for a recently released movie? I don't get it. DVD is a significant step up.
That said, I might keep it for older TV shows and documentaries and movies I wouldn't otherwise get to see, they have a decent library of older and foreign movies.
The whole thing is neutered in Canada too, which pisses me off. Get this licensing stuff together - what the heck, Canada? Would our Canuck way of life be threatened if Netflix could stream Star Trek episodes like it does in the US? Sheesh!
I give Netlflix a 2.5 out 5 stars. I'll watch Marvel cartoons with my son and catch up old 80s sword and sandal films I loved as a kid, and documentaries. Otherwise, there's no way I'm watching movies on it when there's Blu-ray.
