Netflix friends

The separate queues can be pretty useful.

It was originally set up so different people in the house could have their own queue (I know several married couples that split their alotment). When a disc is returned from Queue A the next movie in Queue A is sent.

I used it for a while when I was watching a lot of TV DVDs. I would always either move the entire series up to the top of the queue and then I was stuck either with only that TV show to watch or constantly having to manipulate my queue. Instead, I put all the TV shows in one queue, assigned it one of my 4 DVD slots and so I always had one TV DVD and 3 movie DVDs going without having to keep a constant eye on my queue.

iSm: The rating is a simple click, you don't have to actually say anything if you don't want to. I was using it before the Friends thing was available because their engine actually does a fairly decent job of making recommendations based on what how you rated movies.
