Netflix makes it easy to rent DVDs online from the comfort of your home.
You can rent unlimited DVDs or get unlimited
streaming movies (with a paid monthly plan) and
have them delivered to your door in about 1 business day. There are
no late fees and no due dates, and shipping is free both ways.
I started by getting movies with a free 2-week Netflix trial
and then continued at by paying a small monthly fee.
Here's how
Netflix DVD rental works:
1. Signup and choose movies.
2. Get them in the mail (free shipping).
3. Return the movies (free shipping) and get new DVDs from your
queue.
Here's how
Netflix streaming movies work:
1. Signup and choose a movie.
2. Click "Play" to watch it immediately on your computer, TV, etc.
Netflix is even more than an online DVD movie rental
service though. Inside your account you'll find lots of movie reviews by
film critics such as Roger Ebert and James Rocchi, as well as reviews by
industry publications and other Netflix users. Watch previews of movies
with the built-in movie player and rate movies to get the perfect movie
recommendations. If you ever decide to quit, it's a pretty no-hassle thing, just cancel
anytime, and you can start back up again when your ready, with the same
account.
New to Netflix these days is the Instant Watch program
in which you can stream movies instantly from your computer, TV, or
internet ready device. Netflix has a growing library of thousands of
titles available for watching through Instant Watch. While there are
still movies available by DVD only, technology is shifting to the
on-demand availability of Instant Watch, especially since you can stream
these movies in HD quality (if your device allows it). Netflix will
probably continue to adjust their prices for DVD-only or Unlimited
Streaming program plans as the amount of movies available on each one
changes. But Netflix is easily the leader in customer reviews and
personalized ratings, making it easy for you to pick new movies you'll
enjoy watching.
