NetFlix battled for price and marketshare with BlockBuster - a battle they seem to have won.  BlockBuster recently announced price increases, giving NetFlix a price advantage across most packages along with a larger inventory of movies and traditionally faster shipping to your door.  We alos love their superb community review system and free streaming movie trailers.  Its a nice benefit and their intuitive movie recommendation engine automatically tracks the movies you've rented and suggests other titles based on your history and preferences.

 

NetFlix also offers a one of a kind friend program - allowing you to review movie review from other members and share lists of reviews and favorites.  If you use an Instant Messenger service like AOL or Yahoo you'll see a resemblance. 

 

Prices:

Unlimited rentals per month - pricing varies based on the maximum # of discs that can be checked out at a time:

1 title at a time:  $9.99/month  (trial offer of $4.99)

2 titles at a time: $14.99/month

3 titles at a time: $16.99/month

 

 

NetFlix revolutionized the movie rental industry by perfecting the model everyone else has come to follow.  A beautiful interface, enormous number of titles, the convenience of renting movies from home with no late fees, and super-fast shipping is only the beginning with NetFlix.

 

An element to NetFlix success that some of their competitors overlook is the fostering of community.  Much like Amazon, NetFlix allows their members to post reviews, assign ratings (up to 5 stars), and read reviews from other members.  This is a huge benefit - allowing you to see what other members have said about particular titles, get recommendations for other choices, and even learn to help track movies you've already seen and make recommendations of movies you've missed or forgotten based upon your interests and past selections.  In short, NetFlix helps you manage your time & entertainment value -- something no other rental service comes close to.
