Movie rentals are too boring for me.  I just watch home movies.  Trips to outer space, time travel, inter dimensional weekly time warps, trips to the whorehouse, the whole 9 yards. Its a lot of laughs.
How much would you charge for us to rent some of these Big Dicked?

Sweet! thanks dude, btw. since Debussey forfeited our guitar competition and seeing as how our two favorite guitarists are the same, are you up for a friendly little competition!? I really want to shred off against somebody competent!
I will go easy on the M. Romeo tapped sweeps ;)


Haha! I barely have time to post the odd post here and there. I'm working 16 hours a day these days.

I did learn flight of the bumblebee though, after watching the world speed record on youtube. I thought I was fast, till I saw this. 16th note picked quadruplets at 320 bpm is fucking insane!

I used netflix mostly for streaming. The problem with netflix is the lack of new movies for streaming.
Blockbuster just revamp there system, old movies are .50 cents now. IMO red box is hurting blockbuster more the netflix.

Can I get a cliff's notes version of what it is and how it works ?!!?

I heard it's like an online version of blockbuster.. !?

do you use a standard http browser or their proprietary software to connect ?

how do you rent/buy movies..is it an mpg/avi download or proprietary format ?!

thanks.


i use it... but i mainly just get the "watch instantly" thing via my xbox...i dont really do the dvd thing...most of the movies can be watched straight from the computer or through a video game platform eg xbox wii and ps3...

Netflix is pretty good. I have a basic cable package with some free movies on demand, and pretty much all of the free movies available on cable are already available to watch instantly on netflix. I'm actually going to drop cable entirely once the promo rate I have ends. I have a blu ray player that lets you stream netflix on the tv. I payed close to $300 for it when i bought it around a year ago, maybe longer. I think most blu ray players have it now for maybe $150 or less, and some tv's as well. If you don't watch a lot of tv shows but just occasionally want to watch a movie, it's worth it. A lot of the movies I get an urge to watch happen to be on Watch Instantly anyways.

Get a blu ray player that supports Netflix Watch Instantly and also that supports VuDu. The VuDu HDX titles you can stream are unbelievable in terms of quality.

The best thing about netflix is that it is easy to rent movies you would be ashamed to rent in stores or buy (if you even wanted to buy them). For example, I rented the whole Emannuelle series one month for nostalgic spank bank material. There's no way I would buy that shit in stores or rent it somewhere. That series seemed a lot better when I was 11.

That's a little pointless and nothing more then a novelty act... I'd like to hear him write a good song or chord progression.

The lightskinned black chcik with the afro was the BEST looking Emannuelle..."Like a Panther..."
