What the hell? How is driving 5 minutes to pickup a new movie from blockbuster worse than sitting around for a week to get mailed your next movie? Thats the worst idea I ever heard of.
Back in their heyday, Netflix had warehouses near practically every major city, along with direct access to USPS distribution centers, allowing for 2-day or even next-day mailing of DVDs. Total turnaround time from mailing a DVD to getting the next one was about four business days (including Saturday). And they always had enough stock of new releases, which could not be said about Blockbuster.
