Looking for feedback on netflix vs subscription tv packages(uverse, directv, Time warner etc).
I currently have the U300 package with uverse and the 6mb internet service. Im paying 163.00 monthly for the tv and internet and i have no real complaints, other than i don't watch very many of the channels and movies. I have a few shows i like and i do listen to the music stations, watercolors, smooth jazz, etc. I see that netflix lets you rent dvd's and stream movies, TV shows etc, and it looks to be a cheaper alternative to what I have. Working offshore for 21 days at a time it seems to be a waste to come home and watch movies that i already have the dvd on. Plus the cost of adding cable boxes to additional bedrooms is costly.
Since i have 2 media center pcs in the house and 2 spare bedrooms, i thought of adding this to the mix so company that stayed over can view pics, music or movies on my home network. Seems to be better than apple tv AND it plays blu-ray iso's. Also it too will be able to stream netflix. I like it because its small and does so much.
