I tried both, as you may know. Netflix was quick (1 day turn around) but with 2 out at a time, they only allowed 4 movies per month. GZFX is slower (2-3 days each way) but they have no limit per month so I subscribe to GZFX. One important point sometimes overlooked by those that only look at turn around time and monthly limits (or throttling) is that when you want a movie for a specific night, Netflix delivers while it is hit or miss with GZFX.
Related to that is the personality of the subscriber. I have little control so when a movie comes in from GZFX on Monday or Tuesday I watch it and return it immediately so when that special night comes (usually a Friday or Saturday night), often times I don't have a movie of my choice to watch. With Netflix, I could fairly accurately calculate the arrival date of my next movie and hold it for just a day before a Friday viewing. Again a situation peculiar only to some subscribers.
