Here is a poll: Blockbuster or Netflix http://www.apopularitycontest.com/display_poll.php?ID=4669

One man’s experience. I’d look out for opinions on sites that have signup links (commissions? $$$).

I tried Netflix and BB online, but shipping took too long. At the most, I got 12 movies a month. I now use Blockbuster unlimited in-store rentals at $25 a month and GamesnFlix.com at $16 a month. I can rent 2 movies and 6 xBox 360 (PS2, PS, GC, Movies, Books, etc.) games at a time all for under $40 a month. I can get a total of 60+ movies a month since I just drive to the store. Plus, I never buy games anymore which cost $50+ each.

This is the best value for me and I think it will be the future if they can be profitable with this buisness plan. Here’s to hoping and loving my current services.

1: Their sadistic late fees of the 80′s and 90′s were deplorable. On many an occasion I paid $25 for a late movie with no negotiation. When I returned a movie a day late they reported the late fee to a collection company and blemished my credit record. In my home Blockbuster = Ballbuster. Their beligerent attitude makes their clients proactively seek their competitors. Sound familiar Comcast, Verizon, Microsoft, Etc..

2: At the apex of thier power they would edit movies to remove artistic content that was too racy for them. Now in the new millenium they look as foolish as the temperance movement of the early 1900′s.

3: They never saw DVD coming. I had a DVD player for 3 years before I could even walk into Blockbuster and rent and movies. Then for another year they carried such limited supplies of DVD’s that renting an new release was hopeless.

My prediction is that the assets will be purchased by Starbucks as a stategic real-estate aquisition. With the crippling debt, and foolish management there is no doubt that they will change hands soon for pennies on the dollar.

When comparing Netflix with Blockbuster Online, there are so many similarities that it may seem like a toss-up. The giants of the online DVD rental explosion are feeding off each other’s ideas, spawning lawsuits and smearing campaigns that rival the cola wars of the mid-1980′s.

Both programs allow us to pay a monthly fee, for which we receive DVD movies sent through the mail. When we return them in the postage paid envelopes, we receive more DVD’s. It’s an ongoing cycle that fits almost perfectly with the current American need to get the most out of the least — more movies for less money, less effort, and less time.

Side by side, they are almost identical, but here is how they stack:

Speed of Delivery
Netflix used to have the clear edge here, but expansion to include more distribution stores has brought Blockbuster up to par. Still, for those who rent less, Netflix “ramps” the movies to these higher priority customers, pushing the heavier renters further down the list. To this, they have admitted. Blockbuster has not admitted to this practice, but their denials are not firm. Still, Netflix will have a higher overall percentage of 1 day turns on movies than Blockbuster.
Edge: Netflix

Cost
There is not a current difference in cost, though this seems to change every few months. When one lowers, the other matches. When one raises, the other follows. It is similar to airlines manipulating the markets towards their own unintended dooms. In the short run, Blockbuster offers a free month while Netflix offers 2-weeks. Blockbuster also has a customer service crew that offers discounts and “mishap compensation” more easily.
Edge: Blockbuster Online

Selection
Netflix is approaching 60,000, while Blockbuster is closing in on 55,000.
Edge: Netflix

Website
From talking to many users, it seems that while the concepts of listing movies on a queue and searching for movies in several different ways is the same for both, Netflix has the superior overall layout and useability. Its website seems smarter, though sometimes a bit slower during peak periods.
Edge: Netflix

Fringe Benefits
Netflix has none. What you see is what you get. The fact that Blockbuster offers a free in-store rental every week is extremely helpful in getting the newest releases. With both programs, you sometimes have to wait weeks to get the hottest titles, even if it is at the top of your queue. Being able to walk in and grab that week’s best title is something that Netflix cannot touch.
Edge: Blockbuster Online

Intangibles
Netflix has more experience with online DVD renting, both in regards to time and sheer mass of customers. Blockbuster, as mentioned before, has superior and more responsive customer service. Having a human being available at the local store to help during problems is a big benefit. If there was a large enough gap in any of the above mentioned criteria, I would say that they supercede the intangibles. In this case, there is no substantial difference. The more human aspect of Blockbuster makes it the choice.
Edge: Blockbuster Online

When all is said and done, Blockbuster online seems to be the choice. If you want to give it a shot, email me and I’ll send you a promo code for a free month.

Netflix comes faster for the newer releases, but not as fast as using the free in-store coupons at Blockbuster that you get once a week with Blockbuster Online.

Older titles come about the same, with BB coming a day faster on some titles.

User Interface is better at Netflix.

Prices are the same.

Pound for pound, I prefer Blockbuster. Perhaps the main reason why is that I found two loopholes. First, you can “send” your movies back as soon as you get them by clicking them as sent. They’ll get the next ones out immediately, which I’ve used to get 6 out at a time instead of 3.

Second, the in-store promotion cards can be used every month. You get them for $10, use them to sign up, and then cancel before they bill you. Then you get another card for the next month. You can use the same address and billing info — you just have to use a different email address. They reset after 3 months, so I’ve been rotating 3 emails and getting my DVDs 6 out at a time (plus the in-store weekly rentals) for $10 per month.
