A friend of mine was asking for advice on which service to use, Netflix or Blockbuster.

I’m not going to post a long review of the two because I’ve only used Netflix (and by this I mean their internet services). Just a quick overview…you log in, fill up your movie queue, they send you the amount your plan allows out at a time (4 at a time at our house), you watch and keep them as long as you want (no late fees), then return when you are ready for more. Simple as that. Most of the time we get movies every 2-3 days depending on how often we watch and return.

So, Octavio decided on Netflix and I think he made the right choice. They are the first in the industry, have made many many improvements, and continue to do so (see what’s in the works: Movies over the Internet).

My advice to anyone that has this same question…is to try both for a period of time…but I am sure you’ll decide on Netflix.
