Netflix or MovieZip?

Which service do you prefer and why? Are there better sites out there?

If I started hearing good things about these sites, I would give it a try. They have reasonable prices and who really watches a movie more than once. So it saves me two trips to BuckBloster.

Been using Netflix for about four months, only every had one problem (cracked disc). Sent e-mail and they had a new copy in the mail same day, before I even mailed the cracked one back.
Being that they (Netflix) mail from Mich. I can avg. 2,maybe 3 movies a week. 10-11 movies avg./month for $21.20 tax inc.

Never heard of Moviezip before, Selections look similar,but looks like they charge by the number of movies you want at a time. So for 3 movies it would be $18.95+tax.

Not much price difference so I would say it depends on service and turn-around time.

Remember they ship via the Post Office!

Here's a 3rd option: http://www.rentmydvd.com

These guys cost a bit more per month, but also have the rent by demand option where you pay $5 per DVD for 9 days worth.
