I switched to Netflix from Blockbuster for the same policy change reason. I liked the fact I could take a movie back and rent another from the store and they would immediately ship my next online rental. However my reason for changing wasn't so much the policy change, most of the time I didn't go through the movies that quickly. It was the fact that they changed the policy and didn't let anyone know. They claim the e-mailed people and had a banner on the site, I never saw either. Netflix instant queue was more than worth the switch. I've started watching Dr Who which is something I was interested in but never got into. So if I need something to watch I can just turn to that and be even more lazy since now I don't have to go to the store. I also watch things I probably never would have rented through blockbuster. If I don't like it I can just turn it off and I haven't wasted a queue spot on something I was unsure of.

They have very few free streaming titles. They do have new releases but they are all PPV and I believe around $4. I don't think anyone is really going to use this service. Netflix doesn't have a huge library but at least it's got something that is included in the monthly fee.
