Editor Update

BlockBuster online rentals offer a good value, but they seem to have fallen victim of expensive price wars with NetFlix.  After going head to head for 2 years, BlockBuster adjusted their pricing and is now more expensive than NetFlix. 

Because of its lower price, fast shipping, and robust user community reviews with free streaming movies we now rank NetFlix as the best value in the DVD by mail market over BlockBuster.  Read our NetFlix review here.

 

Featuring the second largest selection of titles (behind NetFlix), the ability to drop off & select movies from retail Blockbuster stores, and an easy to use beautiful interface, Blockbuster DVD Rentals is quickly stealing market share with exclusive features & flexible pricing.

 

Their best value DVD Rental plan for unlimited rentals starts at $9.99/month - making its easy to get started and then move between plans as your time & interests change.

Editor Comment:

A nice overall package.  Interface is clean and easy to use.  Lacks the robust community reviews offered by NetFlix however, and is more expensive than NetFlix for the most popular 3-at-a-time rental package price.  A capable service but rates lower in value in our opinion behind NetFlix.

 

* savings based on 2 sets of DVD's in one month (6 on the 3 at a time plan, 4 on the 2 out at a time plan) being exchanged for in store rentals at Blockbuster avg. in store prices of $4.00 each.  This plus the plan price equals the projected savings.
