xanadu: Funny thing there is I get about two movies a week and have been for the past four months. Not one damaged DVD. Average TAT is 2-3 days. The few times I've contacted customer service (email of course), quick response and my questions answered satisfactorily.

I personally haven't gone through any responses nor looked at the survey numbers since I sent mine in (around 480 at the time). My personal view is that these types of survey responses need to be taken w/ a grain of salt.

Look for instance the type of posts we get here. Some people, when given an opportunity and a forum, just love to bash, bitch, moan and complain. Why? I see it as most of them have a dismal outlook on life and therefore respond accordingly...nothing is ever good enough and they can ALWAYS find something to nitpick at.

You're seeing it in action w/ the survey responses, IMO.

Like I said, I've probably had about 30 movies come and go and not one broken, not two took five days to get and two took one day to send back w/ the avg. being 2-3 days. That's perfectly fine w/ me. I'm not that deperate or anal. Things will improve and just by the fact of them sending this survey tells all that they are focused on the customers.

All well here. :)

The survey: I personally responded to 3 problems myself and they were legit; website problems, delivery over a week, and another I can't remember. I checked the box that I could not reccomend this service to my friends at this time because it is true. In the beggining I was telling everyone to sign up then I saw the service in my area compared to what I was getting with Blockbuster online and it was horrible. Now I take into account that I live in Northern California 600 miles form the nearest distribution center so this did not concern me much as an investor. But the survey results that is troubling... with overstock.com entering the online game market I am very uneasy...
