How does Netflicks work? Are there different charge bands?

Been in New York visiting son and d-i-l and their new baby with my sister. Sister is BIG film buff so when we baby sat for them for the night, son left us with access to his Netflicks account. BIG downer, very little worth watching. Did not get a chance to ask him but are there in fact different levels of Netflicks subs, as I suppose he may have had the lowest one?. Are new films charged at a premium cost?

    As you can see if you go to the NetFlix website, there is only a single price payable.

    If you think the selection is bad in the US version, have a look at the UK one!!!

    Ultimately it is a very low cost product (£7/ month in the UK and $8 in th US) for unlimited content. Needless to say that at those prices it tends not to be premium content

    I think the first month is free if that's any good to you , watch what you want in that month and then cancel!

    netflix is good depending on what you want, in generall the way i look at it is

    netflix is best for tv programs/series
    lovefilm is best for films

    each has a bit of both but the above basically seems to cover what they are best at in my mind
    Drop a brand challenge
    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)
