I watch about ten movies a year if that. I'm kind of a nerd when it comes to television. I pretty much stick to the discovery and history channels

We used to use Netflix. It worked fine, but we got to the point where we realized that we were watching the movies because we felt that we had to in order to get our monies worth out of the program. Now we rent from Blockbuster (they're the only place close by) a few times a year when we have the itch to rent a movie...

Netflix + local mom & pop once or twice per month. No TV, only DVDs and internet.

48 hours video because the rentals are only 99 cents for older movies and $1.99 for new releases..plus they have an excellent selection of adult films..but I rarely rent videos anymore..I do like using OnDemand when I'm at my parents house but it's mostly to watch Entourage.

Dropping NetFlix and starting up with Blockbuster All Access or whatever the program is called. NetFlix dropped their prices recently.

On Demand. Between that and HBO I see most movies I want. If we watched more movies I might do Netflix. I don't think I've gone to a video rental shop in 5 years.
