The different streaming devices it appears 'Netflix' box is the least expensive, if understand correctly once the box and unlimited plan is purchased there is no need to maintain an additional service plan as with TiVo, and Xbox. I will have to check it out further.

Think I have a couple hundred in mine. We just watched 10 items or less,Morgan Freeman. Really liked it. Stepbrothers the other night. Some very funny parts in it. Ok overall. Been watching Alfred Hitchcock presents season one on my Macbook, Mac support recently added woooooohooooo. Counting what I watch online, I would say we watch 20 to 25 movies a month.

Watched The Cleaner(Samuel L. Jackson), Clay Pigeons(Vince Vaughn),Greenfingers(Clive Owen) over the weekend. All three available online.

Wanted and Employee of the month on the way.

Found a program to stream to my PS3 but haven't used it yet. My stepson says it works pretty good.

We had Netflix for a while a few years back but never seemed to get around to watching the dvds they would send us. But since BarneysFunGirl is taking a film class in college, we've just started a new subscription.

She has a lot of film class requirements in the queue (North by Northwest, Do The Right Thing, etc.), but I really like the streaming options. Even though there are less titles available for streaming than rental, I've been able to watch several in the past week that I've never seen--sitting by the fireplace, smoking a cigar, enjoying a drink, and watching good movies on the laptop.

Got Appaloosa, Departed, and Rightious kill on the next delivery. Put adventures of Ford Fairlain on the short list; likely end up watching it by myself, seem to be the only person who found it entertaining.

Departed: Kept me glued to the tube for most of the 2 hour movie, many twist and plots, thought it had a lot of potential and then there's the last 10 min's where it fail to show any imagination. Not on my repeat list.

Really? I would have given it a 4/10. That's not to say I didn't like it. I've seen it 3 times, but didn't think it was all that good. After seeing the lead in Deadwood it was hard to picture him in that role. I couldn't stop staring at his scalp. Olga Kurylenko was hot.

I really liked it for the special effects. I don't think it is movie of the year material or anything. I guess you could say the movie was more fluff than substance.

Also thought it was a good movie! Little bit of trivia, Olga's tatoo changed from the left side of her face to the right in 1 scene. Admittedly it was not one of the scenes she was in that caught my eye.

Looks interesting, can't recall movie with Morgan Freeman that I have not liked. Unfortunately, it's an 'instant movie' may check it out from local video store.
