In their reply email to me they come right out and say:<BR/><BR/><I>In determining priority for shipping and inventory allocation, <B>we give priority <BR/>to those members who receive the fewest DVDs through our service</B>. As a result, <BR/>those members who receive the most movies may experience that (i) the shipment <BR/>of their next available DVDs occurs at least one business day following return <BR/>of their previously viewed movie, (ii) delivery takes longer, as the shipments <BR/>may not be processed from their local distribution center and (iii) they receive <BR/>movies lower in their Queue more often than our other members. By prioritizing <BR/>in this way, we help assure a balanced experience for all our members. Those <BR/>that rent a lot of movies get a great value and those with lighter viewing <BR/>habits are able to count on our service to meet their limited needs.</I><BR/><BR/>I thought it was good business sense to treat one's loyal customers fairly.....
