    just watched my first streaming (TOWIE episode 1).
    other than this boxset, nothing else of interest to me, so will defo cancel after have finished watching.

    it is a shame as it is the only thing i have been able to watch on my laptop, everything else has terrible buffering delays.

    These things sound like junk to me.

    I tried love film via my xbox and all the films were old and rubbish, and the netflix free trial is obvs the same according to a poster here.

    Also, it was in the news that a family managed to rack up something like 11000 $ debt.

    how exactly would they manage that?
  • I realise this board is really for feedback rather than questions, but...

    As subscribers may have noticed, Lovefilm doesn't have anything distributed by Universal Pictures after 2009 (some legal dispute between the two of them, apparently). Does Netflix fill that gap?

    Inglourious Basterds, The Invention of Lying. TV show House.

    I wish you could search for titles without signing up.

    no to all three, my experience has been ok but nothing special. there's some decent movies on there and some old british tv shows but nothing too special, Lovefilm seems to have a better selection of films and more up to date.

    No, the answer is 'Yes'. Here's the link: https://signup.netflix.com/BrowseGenres/New-Arrivals/RA

    Surely that isn't ALL they have? There's not even 20 films per category on that list. I could watch everything within the month free trial if that's all they've got!* I'm sure I'd read somewhere that they had over 15,000 films?



    *not that I'd necessarily want to, or have time to go to work, or sleep, but y'know...

    sure you weren't reading about the US version?
    easily accessed in various ways now we have a UK service

    It might have been the US one I was reading about. How many titles does the UK one have though, is that link just a sample, or is that really all it has?

    So if you sign up to the UK one, there's a way to get into the US one? Or have I misunderstood?
