Still worth it
I'm paying $21.33 per month for Unlimited Streaming + 2 DVDs out at-a-time (Unlimited) and I think it's worth it. On the nights I don't have a DVD, I watch something from my instant queue. I easily go through two DVDs each week, and one or two instant titles each week, in addition to the weekly trip to the theater to catch the latest blockbuster or IMAX movie. I like watching older movies by streaming, like The Naked City (1948), because then the picture quality isn't compromised by my slow connection. Keep in mind, I haven't had cable TV since 2004, and because of Netflix, haven't missed it a bit.
I'm glad Netflix changed its mind about splitting up and moving me to Qwikster, but boy, was that embarrassing. I felt bad for Reed Hastings. What a miscalculation.

I completely understand your affinity for movies, and your proud "cable-free" declaration, but I still have a need for live TV. I'm a big sports fan, however, and love my news. I have DISH network, and can now satisfy both of my media needs with DISH's subscription lineup (America's Top 250), and the recently-released Blockbuster Movie Pass. With this package, I have access to more than 100,000 titles, be they movies, TV Shows or Games. I also get an additional 20 HD movie channels to further expand my subscription lineup!! As soon as my boss at DISH told me about the Blockbuster Movie Pass, I was interested in signing right up. It's inexpensive, high quality, and I get the best of both worlds with great movies, and awesome live TV!!

I don't do as much reading as I used to, but I read whatever chance I get.
