I just signed up for Netflix last night to test it out, since I seem to be in a movie watching mood these days.  Has anyone here had experience with it?  If so, how would you rate the service overall?

Good thing you got me back on the forums, Benj!  I've had extensive experience with Netflix the past few months.  They have a great selection.  The interface is easy to use.  Extremely prompt shipping - that might be because there's a depot only an hour away from my city.  Send it back Monday, they receive it Teusday, send out more movies same day, I receive the movies Wednesday.  How's that for efficiency?  Also, at one point all of my three movies were hung up somewhere in USPS's system.  I reported a "Shipping Problem" for all of them.  That afternoon, Netflix shipped out the next three movies on my queue(sp).  Couple days later, they reported they received the missing movies.  No complaints from me!

Nope. Looks good for those of us with late fees being more than we spent on movie rental.  Sad

well, I had a somewhat bad experience with netflix, because I don't live close enough to where they ship them from. I rarely got my money's worth in a month, plus my dog ate one of the dvd's that came in the mail, (he really hates the mail) bad experience, oh yes!

It is pretty darn expensive if you think about it ($20 a month).  I think I'll cancel my account soon because I don't have the time to watch all the movies I'd have to watch to get my money's worth.

Yeah, it's a word.
