Netflix questions

[bananiem]

We're thinking of joining Netflix and cancelling our movie channels on cable.
Can you tell me the pros and cons of joining?
I went to the website and it says one plan (2 DVD's at a time I think) is for a limit of 4 per month. Does the 4 mean total dvd's (2 orders) or 4 orders (8 dvd's)?
Thanks!

We have the plan with 3 DVDs at a time. As soon as they get one back they send the next one, with no monthly limit. We've had good luck getting our DVDs quickly--they have never help up our order. We live close to the distribution center and if we mail a movie back on Monday, they get it on Tuesday and we get the next movie on Wednesday. Obviously if you live far from a distribution center it will take longer.

That program is a total of 4 movies a month max

From Netflix.com:

Netflix 2-at-a-time (4 rentals a month) Program
The Netflix 2-at-a-time (4 rentals a month) program is ideal for customers who watch fewer movies and want the convenience of no due dates and no late fees.

With the Netflix 2-at-a-time (4 rentals a month) program you may rent up to 4 movies a month. After watching a movie, simply send it back to us. We will send you the next movie in your queue, if we have not already sent you your 4 movies this month. If we have sent you your 4 movies this month, we will wait until the next month to send you more movies. You can keep 2 movies at home at one time.

Enjoy the service!
