All the video rental stores by us closed- literally all. My only complaint with Netflix is you have to wait quite a while for new releases. Like several months. When you do the free trial you get it immediately but once you join that is not the case.
Thats a shame, I have never had a problem with getting new movies a few days after they release to the big box stores... and my movies always come in the mail 2 days after I mail one back. Maybe its just the area we are in that is different

That's interesting! Maybe in our area there is not enough supply for the demand. We list new movies in our queue while they are still at the movies and still we wait. We just got Percy Jackson and The Olympians and we had it on our list. It always says long wait- unless it's a movie that has been out for a while. However as far as movies arriving in the mail there is no probloem there. It's very quick.

U know the only problem i ever had with "long wait" movies was with blockbuster online. The main reason I switched to Netflix. Hopefully its an issue for you that gets sorted out...I know it forced me to leave blockbuster
I use XBMC hooked up to an old PC (output to my TV). Just found a Hulu plugin, and of course XBMC plays just about any other format I throw at it. It's been fantastic, actually getting ready to cancel about $100 worth of "programming" (DishTV).
Boxee is basically the same thing, they took XBMC and put their own front end on it. I prefer free over subscriptions any day of the week, twice on Sunday. No real wait for movies either.
