I have signed up with SwitchDiscs to try it out. I probably wouldn't pull out of PeerFlix, but just use them both.
It took me a while to get registered, because I didn't receive any e-mail with a confirmation code. Finally, after two e-mails to customer support, they handled it manually.
I entered my want list first. Then entered my have list.
Both I found somewhat cumbersome, mainly because it is hard to compare versions. Also, I was pleased to see that they offer a suggested "SwitchBucks" value, however there didn't appear to be a way to compare to what others listed for a particular item.
I was also pleased because it turns out that I have quite a few of CDs that I don't want anymore. So I posted those, but most my DVD collection that I had to trade has dwindled from PeerFlix. I'm hoping to turn unwanted CDs into wanted DVDs.
It did appear that there were a handful of DVDs that were available on SwitchDiscs that weren't on PeerFlix. (Though a couple were outrageously priced.)
It has just been a couple of days, but there has been no activity yet.
I'll try to remember to update this when I get a chance.
