No Limits, you can watch as much as you want. As far as browsing their streaming collection I don't think there is a way if you aren't a member. However, for new members, the first 30 days are free (and there are never any commitments, you can cancel anytime).
I am like PAChicky in that I subscribe to both their streaming service (which as Jack says, has mostly TV shows/documentaries/SOME movies), AND I also subscribe to their DVD service, which I find fills in the gaps of their streaming service. Basically think of the streaming service as a rotating limited selection of shows/movies, whereas their DVD selection is basically every movie ever released on DVD. If I want to watch a movie that was JUST released on DVD, or some oddball old classic, I just order the DVD (it probably won?t be available for streaming). I have the 3 DVD plan, together with the streaming subscription ends up being about $25/per month. That means I can have 3 DVDs ?in home? at any given time. There aren?t late fees, and you don?t pay postage. When you are done with a movie you drop it in a pre-paid envelope, and when they receive it back, they automatically send you the next DVD on your ?list?.
I don?t feel comfortable pirating/downloading movies from the black market, so this is usually the only way to find a lot of movies I want to watch.
I suggest signing up for the free 30day trial of their streaming service, and if you encounter a lot of titles that are ?DVD Only?, and the cost/process in which they run their DVD service appeals to you, add that service as well. I?m a big fan of both. :0008
