Netflix - keep it or bin it?...

My free trial nears end...I'm on the line, unsure whether I should keep it and pay £5.99 a month or not. I'm using it on my PS3 and it works very well. My only problem is with the lack of films. While there's definitely a wide sprectrum ( including anime and foreign films, etc) there  just isn't that many of them all. Also, I find that if you can access any film within few seconds for free you just want to watch them all and end up watching nothing... What would you suggest guys?

I have it... honestly, they could use work. Yeah it's only 8 bucks a month, but you get a selection of sub-par movies. Granted you get to watch TV shows is awesome, but they really need to improve the selection of their movies.

I occasionally use Netflix for streaming, but mostly I use it for Blu-rays. Sure, it's more expensive, but it's cheaper than buying 10 Blu-rays a month, and the quality is worth it to me.

Where are you located Grim? If you're in the UK and went with the launch of Netflix I'd recommend binning it and going with Lovefilm at the moment. There's a streaming only package that is slightly cheaper than Netflix, and at the moment I think their selection of films is much better. I intend to check in with Netflix in a few months to see if their library has improved, but at the moment Netflix only has things that I already own.

I'm located in UK. The library on Netflix is a bit shit, really... but Lovefilm's streaming quality isn't very good, apparently. So, it seems like both services have their own issues.

I really hoped new films would be added daily... But I've been on this trial for more than 2 weeks now, and so far nothing has been added.

Looks like I'll have to go back to Blockbuster, I guess;)
