I can't take the throttling anymore from Netflix and will just go
DVDless before I give htem another penny to hold onto my disks. I've
never seen a service this bad. one or two disks you can blame the mail
but for the last four weeks now it's just ridiculous how obvious they
are throttling me (and this is the second time now over the last year).
Besides making almost impossible to actually even contact them, they
don't respond to emails anyway. I've had two disks that were supposedly
sent out a week ago not arrive and another from the 15th. Each time I
return a disk, it take a couple extra days now for them to "show up"
there. I just had it with them.

I tried Blockbuster once about a year ago and they were just bad. I had
about ten movies in my queue just sitting there, all available, never
being sent out. Finally I called and asked why nothign was being sent
when they're all available and the guy said you have to have at least
30 movies in your queue. I told him what does it matter if there's 3
or 300, if they say "available now" why isn't anything being sent. I
could hear the gerbil on the wheel in his head trying to come up with
an answer and he finally admitted he didn't know.

I saw an ad for this new company E3flix, which is the same price as
Netflix, I just don't want to waste money repeating what I've had with
Netflix if this company does the same thing or is as bad as BB or
Netflix. Anyone tried them yet?
