"Blockbuster's Total Access plans have some nice perks (free
in-store rentals and the ability to return movies at local stores) for
cinephiles who prefer to mix Web ordering with real-world aisle-browsing,
but those advantages come with the same old video-store caveats (in-store
rentals are subject to late fees and must be returned to the store rather
than mailed) that drove many people to online rental plans in the first
place." (found at reviews.cnet

As a rental service it is okay however it is rather expensive but they do
have a great range of DVD's and many copies of one DVD so it's good for those
titles which have just been released. (viking06

Still satisfied with Blockbuster Online, overall quick turnaround time. My
only complaints are that they do not ship on weekends, and they do not notify
you when they have increased your monthly rate.

Not sure why so many bad revies but I think Blockbuster online is awesome. I
always have a movie to watch and we watch alot. They did up there prices but
it is still worth it if you watch alot of movies.

I love Blockbuster Online! I really don't understand the negative reviews. I
get my movies quickly, they have a great selection, the website is easy to
use, and I pay 19.99 for 3 DVDs at a time, unlimited exchanges, and a coupon
each month. I get a new movie every day.
I have had a few issues such as scratched DVDs or the wrong DVD being shipped
(I'd say about 1 in 50 mailings) but as soon as you report the issue, they
immediately offer to ship either the same movie or the next item in your
queue.
I don't really see how this service could be any better. (last three comments

BlockBuster Details & full review
General Overview:
BlockBuster is primarily a online DVD rental store, but has recently
expanded it's operations to include a wide range of game titles. A
BlockBuster subscription is ideal for someone who is planning on renting
DVDs as well as games. BlockBuster has one of the largest selections of DVDs
online and now boasts over 2,500 game titles.
BlockBuster is a large company, which means they have plenty of money to
spend on website design and development and it shows when you use their
video game and DVD ordering system. BlockBuster's system is on par with
GameFly, the best designed systems.
BlockBuster are currently running a special offer for the first month for
just $9.95.
Console Support:
Gaming consoles covered include: PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube and Xbox 360.
Shipping Details:
shipping was about fast with games coming in about 1-2 days.
BlockBuster has shipping locations all over the US so shipping should be
above average to most US locations.
Good Points:
BlockBusters website, delivery times and customer service is very good. For a
large company, they go to great lengths to look after their subscribers.
Bad Points:
BlockBuster's main problem is you can't bundle together a gaming and DVD
package. I thought this would be just common sense. This might suit some
gamers, but if you were going to become a subscriber wouldn't you like to take
advantage of their huge DVD range as well?
Special Offers/Deals:
Our Rating:
BlockBuster is a recognised and respected rental business and I thought they
could have done a better job of entering the game market. They have a good
selection, excellent website and fast shipping but don't have the pricing
packages to suit gamers.

There have always been lots of movies that show or exploit sex, but far fewer
that try to explore it seriously, as a rich, meaningful subject, whether
psychological or social...
