How to Get the Most of a Netflix Membership

Plasma Screen TV

Netflix is the world's leading online DVD rental service, offering more than 100,000 titles that are ready to send out to customers all over the country. The premise is quite simple. You choose a movie in any category you could ever want and then they send it to you as per your monthly subscription. You can rent up to 3 DVD's at any given time and when you are done watching them you simply send them back, postage paid. There are a few steps that you can take to really make the most out of your Netflix membership.

Instructions

1. Browse the entire selection. Netflix has what is called a queue. When you browse the movie list selections you just add to the queue the movie that you want. You can select them in any particular order so that when you return a movie that you have watched another one from your list is sent out automatically. This will keep a constant flow of movies coming in so that you will be able to watch several a month without having to go back and pick more.

2. Watch the movies as soon as they arrive. The best way to make the most out of your Netflix membership is to watch them as soon as they come in. Netflix will send out another movie as soon as they get the one that is sent back so realistically you can watch a movie everyday if you plan it right. For example, say you order three movies to start but only watch one in a night. Send that one back the next day, watch the next one the following night and then night after that and within just a couple of days other movies will be sitting in your mailbox.

3. Send the movies back quickly. If you do not send out your movies as soon as you are done watching them then you will have longer to wait before the next movie arrives. With the quickness of the mail back process it pays to be diligent in sending out the movies as soon as you finish them. This way you can realistically average 15 to 30 movies a month.

4. Take advantage of the online service. Netflix also has an online service that allows you to watch instant movies as well as television shows on your computer. Included in most of the plans you can watch movies as much as you want to, anytime you want to. This way, if you are waiting for another movie to arrive you can just hop on the computer and watch a myriad of different movies and television episodes, some including the current season.
