Have you tried Blockbuster Online rentals? If so, do you like it?

if you go to www.blockbuster.com/trial and enter the promotion code 47051 you can try it for free for a month.

Update:

At the store I go to they have been giving everyone this same code!

    Yeah I have it. I like it better than Netflix because it gives you an extra free store rental each week. However, the website isn't as nice as Netflix.

    I actually boycot Blockbuster video....

    1) They "censor" films; some films they will refuse to promote/distribute if the filmmakers don't either re-edit their films or just re-shoot some scenes....

    2) They also Re-edit themselves some films to make them more "blockbuster"-friendly: for example I saw a VHS version of the film The Bachelor rented from Blockbuster, viewed against another store-bought copy and there were many many changes and differences....

    3) They don't carry an adult section. In my little opinion, it isn't a real video store if there isn't an adult section, no matter how pathetic and cheesy or small it may be...

    4) Most of the "kid" employees don't know squat about film or movies. Try to explain to the 17 year old guy behind the counter the difference between full screen and widescreen, and see how many aspirins you'll need to take after that ordeal!

    Cheers!

    Yes I have tried it. And it was great. But everyone can't use the same promotion code you can go to a blockbuster store and get one. And you have to have a account with blockbuster already but me and my husband found it to be good and saved was money on gas.

    I am a member for a while now, and I am very happy. whenever I bring it back to the store I get the new one pretty fast. Honestly it only happened one time that they were really late. the rest it fast. I think you should email them a complaint (online) and then they may pay more attention. I also think that the advice of the guy that told you to make sure they are scanning it on the spot, is a very good advice.
