9 per mo is about $2 per disc, no? Not really so bad compared with
BB's in-store new/old two-fer at 4+ per rental. What plan, may I ask,
will you use with a better rental rate?

OK. I've been lucky, for the most part, with NF turn-around and,
except for the holiday weeks, I've never had problems maintaining ~4.5
per week. Are you sure you're being throttled, or are you just
observing regional availability/allocation which you're wildly
attributing motive?

Just this past week I accidentally had all three discs on the program
to which I subscribe back to them on Friday - so I missed "Cinderella
Man" on Monday and it went to "Very Long Wait" on my list. Who's
fault was that? Mea culpa ;-0)

BTW, I'll still get CM - and other items which I've indicated as
desirable have been delivered in its lieu.
