But Blockbuster lets you rent Blu-ray DVDs at no extra charge while Netflix charges up to an additional $1.00 to $4.00 depending on your plan. The pro of Netflix is it has more titles.
You can also download movies, many for free, although you'll probably have to watch them on your computer. Netflix offers its subscribers free streaming of more than 17,000 movies. Apple's iTunes and Blockbuster also offer some free downloadables.
