DVDs By Mail?

Posted by Cliff on from the DVD-rental-from-the-comfort-of-your-couch dept.

scubacuda asks: "DVD mail rentals are hot right now. Netflix, perhaps the most popular one, costs only $19/month (with free shipping). Since then, a whole new batch of similar DVD rental services have cropped up. What do Slashdot readers look for? Which ones are most reliable, have the best selections, provide free shipping and makes the best movie suggestions?"

    Actually they have options that are cheapier and more expencive. My roommate and I have their 8DVD plan for only $40 per month (39.95) and that works perfect. We always have our 8DVD's at once, and in the 2 years I have personally been using them, the only bad thing is when the postman broke one of the DVD's. Netfilx was very understanding about that too... I strongly reccommend Netflix, and would advise to avoid any others as the only others I have tried sucked.
