Blockbuster subscription started: 6/23/06
Netflix subscription put on hold: 6/24/06
For the third year in a row I've switched to Blockbuster Online for the summer. The slower pace of summer life is nicely matched by a slower DVD rental service, and it's as good a time as any to pick up a few titles that Netflix doesn't carry yet. The rest of the queue is filled with titles from the AFI and BFI Top 100 American/British films lists.
7/10: "Brilliant But Cancelled: Crime Dramas" was mailed to me on 06/28/2006. I never received it and reported it lost, but somehow Blockbuster checked it back in on 07/10/2006. In the 3 years I've been renting DVDs through the mail, this is the first time something like this has happened. Very strange.
