The cat is just wondering.
It seems popular among the mainstream audience but what about people in fansite forums?
The cat personally wouldnt use it at all as the cat no longer watches movies.

I've tried it, but I rarely watch TV or movies, so there wasn't much point in keeping it up.

I have a sub right now but only because Nexon gave me 17k NX to do it.
I'll unsub in a bit. Its not a bad deal though.

A few. I'm a big fan of movies, I just don't watch them.
DVDs by mail does seem a little annoying though. So only picked the ones I could stream.

My mom is the only one that really uses it though.

THE thing is that you have to do what a PIRATE does to keep the authorities at BAY

My parents go to this Chinese DVD renting store and rent their DVDs(they stock American Movies and Chinese Movies, Dramas, and the like) there. My dad then burns it onto a disc so my mom and dad can watch again if they want and return it to the DVD store within 3 days. All this for $3.00 a DVD. My dad has burned so many DVDs now that we never watch again. He has about 3 stacks of CD holders(5 CD holders in each stack) that are all dusty and old filled with Chinese Dramas and American Movies. I guess you could say it's pirating. :evil:
As for regular movies I rarely watch them anymore. Heck, I haven't gone to the theaters in over 2 months, possibly way more.

I know, I'm one of the biggest hypocrites on earth. :P
EDIT: Here's how I look at it. I buy a decent amount of movies. However, a lot of the movies I watch are older and aren't really sold anymore. Here's the thing: If I were to rent it or buy it from a resale shop, none of that money goes to the creators. It just goes to the store. So I'm not supporting them anyhow. So I don't feel bad pirating those ones. However, as far as new releases go, I'll always see it in theaters (strongly against pirating movies that are still in theaters), and USUALLY buy it if it's new release on DVD.

I use it. It's actually really nice and they're quick about sending dvds. The no late fees is awesome, too. My mom also got the thing for the PS3 so that we can just put in a certain dvd and we can stream movies and tv shows from the internet.
