I was an extremely early adopter of Netflix, as I have never had cable in my life. Back in the day, I had the 3 DVD in the mail plan. There were huge quantities of movies available, some very obscure. Really, I could get almost anything I could think of, I recall. Plus, they used to recommend me movies that were fantastic and that I'd never heard of.
When I got married in 2013, I cancelled my DVD service and jumped onto streaming with my husband. I've never liked it. There's hardly anything I really want to watch on it. Mostly my husband watches stuff on it, but it's never anything he's really excited about, either.
I've been toying with the idea of going back to DVDs and canceling the streaming. Does anybody still do this? How is it, these days? Still the enormous selection from my memory? It'll be a tough sell with my husband, and my toddler loves Dinotrux, but I think I might be able to talk them into it. Husband wants to read more books.
