As Netflix split it’s services today into two separate arms (Streaming under the same company name & DVD under Qwikster), many news sources jumped to cover the announcement.
Of all the articles out there, one stands out the most. The one on the Christian Science Monitor under the title of : Five Alternatives to Netflix. The list reads as such:
- Amazon Prime
- Blockbuster
- RedBox
- Hulu Plus
- Getting a Life
Seriously, how much of your time on Earth do you want to spend staring blankly at a glowing rectangle? Here you are doing it right now, hoping to discover a service that will let you do it some more. How about just canceling your Netflix subscription using the money to do something else? Phone up an old friend, play a board game, go out for ice cream, or save up for a trip somewhere.
Finally a worthy alternative to Netflix.
