Netflix

Apparently its just the week from hell! I get a new netflix movie last weekend, 'American Gangster' never seen it before, and all week I didn't get to watch if because I was working, at school, doing school stuff, or at a funeral. So finally I only work for a short time Saturday and I figure I'll rearrange my room. Well I get around to doing that and seven or so hours later I finally get everything put back away and where I want it to be and I pop in this movie, and the damn thing is all scratched to hell!

I can't even get half way through the movie and the darn thing starts skipping and sputtering (in a way DVD's do when they are scratched) and it becomes unwatchable as my xbox continuously notifies me that the disc is unreadable.

I should have known this would have been a problem to try and enjoy since it took me numerous tries just to get past the title screen. The thing is I should have learned my lesson a long time ago that Netflix sucks at sending out DVD's that actually work. I kind of figured that before when their prices were so extraordinarily low that they may have not exactly concentrated on the quality of every one of their vast number of choices, but still, you won't make any sort of money if you continue to send people damaged merchandise!

Anywho I got so upset that I'm being charged double what I used to be paying that I hopped right onto my computer and changed the plan I signed up for. Instead of paying fifteen something for endless streaming and one piece of crap dvd sent to me at a time, I went with the much more sensible option of endless streaming...and just endless streaming for like eight bucks. Easilly the best idea ever considerring I barely send for DVD's to be sent to my home and when I get them I usually have them for weeks at a time cuz I just don't think to return them. So the ability to just stream what I want when I want is wayyy better and much more reasonably priced.
