What's the longest you've had a DVD out through Netflix?

Jun 26, 2012 2:21 AM

Tomorrow I will be sending back a DVD I've had out since last July.

No, I haven't watched it yet. And I have a 1 DVD plan.

I'm thinking it's time to switch to streaming-only.

Netflix? Are they still in operation? I figured the disc I'm holding onto would have put them out of business by now.

It's been about three months now. I hope to watch Contagion one of these days!

Its not Netflix but I rented a DVD from Redbox, accidently kept it past the 30 days, am still paying it off from Janurary, and havent watched it yet.

I really should watch Ides Of March.

Probably about 5-6 weeks. Thought that was bad.

Magnolia has been sitting on my desk, waiting to be watched, since January 2011.

Wow, this makes me feel better... I had Blue Valentine for at least 6 months. At least it turned out to be a good movie once I finally watched it. :)

june 2008. I went back to a stream only plan , and they have yet to ask for the 3 missing DVD's yet. I think that might be chalked up as win.

Edit: one of them is Cube. Another is HyperCube. I don't think they're ever asking for those 2 back....

Wow. I'm pretty good, as it turns out. If I have a disc for 2 weeks and I haven't watched it I just send it back. If it takes that long then clearly it is something I really didnt' want to watch in the first place, time to admit to the mistake and move on. I can't imagine holding one for months at a time.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
