Netflix is primarily good for TV shows (funny because the name is flix, not shows)...due to the reason that you don't have to wait for commercials.

Otherwise, it doesn't get much new content but there's MORE of it than other services.

So if you're into foreign movies, this is perfect for you. Foreign can mean European as well.

All in all, it's a good service, it has kiddy shows which are good if you have children.

My biggest issue with Netflix is the lack of a proper rating system or top movie lists...so you have to do a lot of research to find good movies on it sometimes...but there are a lot of good "older" movies on it. You just have to find them.
