Shoot, at $8/month it's as good as free[/QUOTE]
$96 a year is as good as free?
I like your logic there. I guess money grows on trees where you come from.[/QUOTE]
Money doesn't grow on trees, but yeah, I consider $8/month or $96/year as fairly minimal (in this day and age) in exchange for what you get, which is on-demand viewing of a lot of movies and tv shows. I compare that to my other monthly expenditures - rent, phone, cable, utilities, insurance, car maintenance, groceries, etc. and it comes up pretty favorably, and doesn't impact my budget, really at all.
It's also a pretty small component of the overall monthly entertainment line item in my budget (I budget like a fiend!). It's convenient and inexpensive, and that's a pretty good trade off for not of the highest digital quality. Now the flip side is that I really don't know how comprehensive their library is. I've only had it for 2 months, and I don't use it all that often - like I said, I'm still watching eps from one very old television show. I guess I'll find out eventually if I'm successful at pulling up whatever interests me at any given time.
I compare it to smokers. If they haven't switched to e-cigs, they're probably paying $8-10 per *pack*! And god knows how much their monthly budget is for something that could actually kill them! I think my measly $8/month expense is pretty good by comparison, all in all.
