OK, I'm going to give it a try. :) Rico, on their web site they have a free trial offer, is this the same as what they offered you? I want to start watching Stargate, finally. How does the rental system work for box sets?

Their trial is shorter on their website.  Use this link Bryan:

No - each disc is one rental.  Usually for TV shows there are about 3-4 episodes per disc.

Besides the disc mailing to your home they have a great on-line streaming system to your PC.   You create a queue of movies and TV shows.  Those that are available instantly also show up in your "instant" queue.   I have watched all of the Jericho episodes in about 2 weeks.  No waiting for discs, start and stop while you are about the house, see the entire list of eps and move from one to the other.  I am also through 50% of the Quantum Leap episodes and have queued up Heroes next.  For TV serials I love this ability to watch commercial free and not mailing time at all.    With that speed you can really get into a series.

Seems like they have a fantastic set of current TV serials available.

You have unlimited watching using the instant queue, so watch as much as you want.

Since I have a double monitor PC I can watch an episode on one screen and still do email and other side efforts on the alternate screens when the action is slow, credits are rolling, etc.

If you have a spouse, you can split up your number of discs per month so she gets a queue and you get a queue.  In the Vartok collective my spouse gets 2 out at a time and Vartok gets 1.  We used to have the 4 disc out at a time plan but no one could watch that much!

Have an aging parent?  I set up a 2 disk at a time membership for a parent who doesn't know how to use a PC.  She gets 2 discs out a time and I create the queue with some input from here.  She always has something to watch since she doesn't get out as much any more but enjoys seeing the new movies a few months after they are out of the theatres.

Season 1 has some clunkers while everyone finds their feet then it hots up and really gets going. I'd recommend it but my taste may not be yours. I hope you enjoy it Bryan.

I know it's unnusual here but I don't have a podcast of my own.

Got another free month for anyone that needs one (new users of Netflix only).  Just let me know and I'll email the offer to you.  Still the best deal around.
