Blockbuster really sucks

[Mikey]

Last week my buddy gave me a gift card for a free month of Blockbuster rental.

I thought, COOL

I just noticed how bad they suck compared to Netflix.

When I signed up to Netflix and ordered my movies, I usually have them in hand in about 2-3 days.

Blockbuster took over a week ... that's more then a week wasted out of a month.

The stuff I ordered is old too, so it can't be out of stock.

Also,

For TV shows ...
Netflix lists what episodes are on which discs.
Blockbuster just lists "disc-1" etc.

I shouldn't complain because it's a free month for me, but man they suck.

Netflix is like a wet dream compared to blockbuster.

Agreed

[cjefferys]

I haven't rented from Blockbuster in years. Terribly run company, they will probably be gone soon, they've been literally on life support for quite some time now.

never tried online,I rather go pick it up in person

I just tried to get Little Shop of Horrors the 80's musical

It say's long wait

Why ?

Man, Blockbuster is lousy.

Almost everything is long wait.

Can't remember the last time I even rented a movie from Blockbuster...

You don't have to tell me brother I used to work for them like 11 years ago...
Ah man that really sucked.
They paid very well though...fifteen cents above minimum wage...LOL
In order to apply you had to give them a written reason why you would be good for the team...
And also fill out a 100 question test on movie knowledge then another one on customer relations...*** for fifteen cents above min c'mon guys...LOL

Ah well it was a real joke anyway.I worked a year for them.

Blockbuster is a joke...no wonder they are going under...good riddance.

Netflix has excellent service and the best damn selection on Earth...no wonder they are one of the few companies thriving even in this economy.

Jeez we are more alike than I thought...LOL
If only you would get rid of the warrior fascination and jump on the "Hitman" band wagon.It would all be aces D.

[MegoMark71]

I know they suck but i don't think another huge company going out of business is good.

[thunderbolt]

YEah BB's online service blows big time. I tried it for about 4 months, they raised prices twice in that short time. Netflix will bury them, can't believe it hasn't already happened.

lol! for sure

But i guess that's were the difference between an American and Canadian start to show you guys love your Hitman,I can respect that (for the record I was a huge Hitman fan as well)

Netflix rules! About 3 years ago I hooked up a refurbished (cheap) computer with a cable to translate the VGA signal to NTSC and I watch the Instant Watching movies on my TV. Now they have translator boxes to hook up to your TV for around $100. I also hooked up a second monitor to both my office and my home office computers so I can watch while I work. I'm never without a movie!
