Amazon Instant Video vs Netflix Instant

Quote from jsean : Netflix will premiere the new season of Arrested Development. That is reason enough to choose Netflix over amazon.

Sweet, still on season one and I am kind of kicking myself for not watching it when it was on the air. Guessing not all cast members will return?

The whole cast is coming back.

New season? I thought there was going to be a movie.

Season 4, (10 episodes) on netflix (2013) and then a movie.

Quote from z2g : Can anyone tell me how Amazon Instant Video compares to Netflix Instant? Since you can now watch Amazon movies on the PS3, it's another option for me. If you do the math, Amazon Instant Video at $79 per year comes out cheaper than 12 months of Netflix Instant which is about $8 per month plus tax too. I don't think Amazon Prime membership has tax. I just wonder how is the movie selection though.

Try AIV with the free trial or a Amazon Prime free trial (if you haven't had it before). That's the ony real way you will know how much you like it. It's just to personal when it comes to choice based on likes and stuff to tell you what you'll like better. Kinda like trying to tell me my contact lens prescription just going by some posts on SD. But I dropped Netflix after they lost Starz and increased their prices. 'We're givin' you less and chargin' you moar! Great deal!' No it wasn't.

I have Amazon, Netflix, and Hulu (actually, I'm "borrowing" my buddies Netlfix and Hulu). Amazon's selection of "free" movies is wretched, unless you don't mind watching something 10+ years old, or crap that went straight to DVD. They do have plenty of more recent movies though that you can pay ~$3.99+ for, even having Prime, which is stupid IMO. They don't even give a discount for being a Prime member. However, I will give them that the TV/documentary section is pretty decent. Netflix probably has the best overall selection, and newer movies/tv shows, and is probably my favorite of the 3. Hulu is a step down from Netflix in the selection department, but I'm also not a fan of their menu. Unless I'm missing something, you have to browse through one selection at a time on screen...which is extremely annoying...whereas Netflix's menu shows about 5 or so rows, and about 5-6 titles per row/genre...so you can scroll through the movies a lot faster when you're just browsing.
