14-Feb-2007

This photo is a bit of a rant. We've been torn for a while between Netflix and Blockbuster for online
movie rentals and aren't really happy with either. The chief complaint with Netflix is that we strongly
suspect them of intentionally throttling the delivery of movies to those who rent more than one or two a week.
The main complaint with BB is that just because a movie is listed in your queue as "available" doesn't mean
you'll get it next. We'll often get the 5th or 10th "available" movie. So, "available" just seems to mean
available to someone somewhere. Anyhow, we're in the middle of switching again, and as luck had it, the
maximum of six movies arrived all at once in the mail today. With a free in-store movie, that was enough for
a little house of cards, but I have no illusions that this luck will last any longer than the house of card.
