We love Netflix,we do dvds/some streaming on our computer. We have had it 2yrs. They have alot more instant movies now than they did before. It is definitely worth it for us. No late fees. Before netflix, renting movies would end up costing us 10-15 dollars in late fees for two movies.Something would always come up. We have a netflix routine now, one comes, we watch, mail when I drop kids at school next morning, usually receive next one 2 days later. So yes we use both ways and LOVE IT. They have a dvd that allows you to use xbox, wii and also their own streaming device.
