BB is worse than Netflix. My friend gave me a one month free subscription code. I didn't even get new movies. Wanted old movies like, Little Princess, Murder In the First, Young Guns, Silence of the Lambs were all "LONG WAIT"....
Basically, all my movies were short waits that evolve to long waits.
5 movies a month at BB?

Anime Takeout: Very good customer service, that's why I stayed after the 10 days free trial.
HOWEVER, going to cancel it after the first month is up because:
1. Same county: 3-5 days to check in movies.
Basically it's 2 movies every week. Kind of inconvenient when it comes to returning movies if you lost the mailer. You have request it from CS, wait for them to send a new one to you before you could send the dvds back.
2. Pretty 'bad' anime collection. It's like 95% of their dvds are all out of stock....my #1 and #2 dvds have been 'out of stock' for the last 2.5 weeks.....
3. Back dated inventory: Dvds that have been released 2-3 weeks ago, still has the 'coming soon' tag on them.
If you put a lock on there, basically you don't get any dvds if your 1st volume is out of stock.
Too much hassle...
