The New Way to Watch TV

Netflix Instant Watch is one of the best services I have come by. With their streaming service, I have actually eliminated my cable TV bill completely and use Netflix exclusively for TV. They seem to be focusing more and more on moving their library to streaming, which is great.

The predictions on what rating you will give a movie is phenomenal. If it thinks I will rate a movie 4 or 5 stars, its usually dead accurate. A movie suggestion from Netflix is almost as reliable as a suggestion from a close friend (sometimes more).

The biggest let down is their Anime selection. The way they categorize the anime doesn't seem logical. You can browse the entire collection and never see an anime that they in fact do carry. Also, nearly every anime series I have rented has had one or more discs unavailable, which resulted in me having to buy the disc.

As they move more anime to streaming, this problem will disappear. I just hope they are quick about it.
