I have blockbuster now, but I'm wondering if I should switch to Netflix. There are a ton of BBC drams(historical) that I want to get and blockbuster doesnt have them. For instance Land Girls that came our recently isnt available on Blockbuster. And Larkrise seasons 3 and 4 aren't aviablie either.

I wanted regency house, and that isn't on blockbuster plus a ton more.

So does anyone have netflix? How are they with BBC movies?

I have Netflix and the BBC stuff is one really good reason to get it. They have A LOT--from documentaries to dramas to funny stuff. And what you can't get streaming, you can usually get mailed to you. If you've never had it before, you can often get a free one month trial, so I would suggest that and then you can have some concrete evidence to help you decide.

I love netflix. It carries everything, And no late fees. I know Blockbuster dropped those, but in my memory they are still the late-fee gotcha business.

Hmm interesting.

I mean Blockbuster has stuff, but it doesnt have a ton of BBC stuff and frankly the BBC makes awesome historical dramas with such lavish sets and such.

I did check Netflix and they don't have Larkrise season 3 but have season 4.

I have Netflix and I love the selection available. I get all my BBC from them.

I signed up for Netflix over the weekend after subtle lobbying by The Daughter and got my first DVD today. Cool!

Our local Blockbuster closed down two weeks ago so we switched to Netflix. So far it has been a wonderful experience. Wondering why we didn't do this YEARS ago.
