I wonder what the selection is like in Latin America? Here in Canada the selection is pretty meagre compared to the US, but I still think it's a great deal at $7.99 a month. Just watched the BBC "Sherlock" series and that alone was worth the price.

Sherlock is a great series. I torrented the first 3 episodes when they came out in 2010, and they were an absolute treat. I love the format that they chose - going for quality over quantity, and creating a true movie-length story by making them 90 minutes each.

Unfortunately, season 2 won't be coming out until 2012, though I'm not sure why.

(shameless plug) I'm creating a list of the best Zip.ca and Netflix.ca movies and tv series for us Canadians, still a work in progress: http://bestmoviescanada.com/ (for Netflix you can click to watch the movie directly)

I think it's a great idea - there's a lot of crap to sort through. I checked out your site, I think it would be easier if you made separate lists for netflix and zip.ca

Thanks. Netflix is going to go on a second list since they have few good and recent movies, its strength is in tv series and documentaries.
