Netflix vs BBonline

I love Netflix as well. They've got a great diversity of films; probably not as esoteric as mousepod's find, but it's okay for my general viewing needs. (However, I will check out Nicheflix as I really miss that little Hollywood video store where I used to find some real rare film gems).

I've heard that Blockbuster takes longer to turn around the receipt/send out of DVDs than Netflix. Maybe that's just because they have less regional distribution centers or something?

However, I've been burned so many times by Blockbuster on in-store rentals and their arcane way of calculating late fees, I just don't want to take a chance on switching to their online service.
