I am an avid movie goer. There is rarely a Friday night when I can be found anywhere except the theater, catching the latest flicks.
Frequently, I also like to catch up on some of my old favorites or watch the one movie I missed in the theater. So which option do I choose? To I head for the Blockbuster? Hunt down a Redbox? Update my queue on NetFlix?
Actually I use a bit of a combination. First off, I have never liked Blockbuster. They have always had higher prices and poorer service when compared competitors, including local rental stores.
Now, we're all NetFilx, Redbox and Hulu. With NetFlix and Hulu streaming options I can stream almost anything I want to my Xbox360 or PC. For the few things that I can't get via stream, I can either drop it in my NetFlix queue (and wait 24 hrs) or run to a near by Redbox and rent it for a dollar.
With options like this, its no wonder the big blue of the movie rental business is going down.
