Mike - as of 6 months or so ago, in order to get the video streaming rights from some movie companies, netflix agreed to delay their new releases by 30 days. So that means video stores and pay per view will have new releases from some movie cos. earlier. This is expanding as Netflix is in a BIG push for streaming which is the furture of the business. Soon, more will be delayed but you will have more movies to stream.

I think they suck.
We are on the 2 movies at a time thing. When we first signed up, new realeases were in the mailbox within a day or 2 of ordering. Now that we are "old suckered in customers" With new releases, they are on cable before we get them they take so long to get.
We also have our 2 year old Samsung Blu-ray player hooked up to the net, so we can do all that jazz too. But it sucks too cause instead of just playin the previews on the disc, it logs onto the internet and downloads the latest preview which at times can take frustratingly too long. And you can't bypass them. I just wanna put the movie in, hit play, and watch, not have to wait a half hour before you can start the friggin movie.
