I absolutely hate the fact that there's so little rental places to go in and browse movies. I know about 6 or so years ago, there was a Hollywood Video down the road from my house. To this day, one of my favorite things to do to relax and enjoy my free time is to go to places like that and just look through their selections and rent movies, but sadly, that place got closed down years ago and it's now replaced with a damn cell-phone store(As if there aren't enough of those everywhere?). The only movie store anywhere near me is a MovieStop that's almost 45 minutes away, but the great thing is to make up for it, it's huge.
As far as getting new movies, I have Netflix Instant Streaming and then the two-at-a-time DVD subscription. I've never had an issue with either one. For a while, their instant streaming catalog was terrible, but recently they've begun updating it more frequently with up to date movies, and their mail service has always had the newest movies available. And I always seem to get my movies within maybe a day or two of putting them on my list. I love it. I've never been a big fan of Blockbuster, and Redbox is my second choice besides Netflix, but I dislike the multiple charges to my credit card if I wanna keep a movie more than one day. I'd rather go the old route of renting a movie at a store and then paying like $7 and getting the movie for an entire week. Yeah, I know the math about $7 for one week equaling $1 per day for 7 days, which makes it the same, but for me, paying all up front one time is less stressful for me. But Redbox has always seemed to have a somewhat decent catalog of the newest movies.
