Re:Comparing quality of films in the iTunes & Netflix libraries

Whenever I want to watch something I search for it on Netflix, Amazon then iTunes in that order. I've found its worth it to keep a Netflix account around because:
1. A few times a month they actually have something I want to watch. It doesn't take very many occurrences of this to save me money over Amazon/iTunes.
2. Occasionally I just want to watch something, and don't really care what. Its nice to have a decent sized library of content that is available at no additional cost.

Yeah, it doesn't take much to break even on Netflix at $7 a month. They have BBC Sherlock for instance, which iTunes wants $7 an episode for. So that's three months right there.
