I'd be willing to pay the same as the other customer that gets his movies
shipped out before me even though mine were returned first.
Much simpler way for them to have done this instead of 'throttling' would be
'combined shipping'. If you have multiple movies shipping to you from the
same facility (almost always the case) offer you the option in your profile
to have them placed in a single shipping envelope and you return them in the
same single envelope.
The weight of a CD is minimal and would more than halve their current
shipping rate using this method.
Truth is IMHO they are simply trying to push those that rent more to pay
more by moving to a higher tier.
Perhaps to help them save money and be sure all their NEW and Less frequent
renters are happy, we should all hold our movies for the entire month and
return them on March 1st. Certainly would make a point when a few million
CD's from their inventory were tied up sitting at customers homes!
