Hey Ky_Flixer,

I think Chris has already addressed your problem with the disc switchbuc values. I'm pretty sure he said they plan on adjusting the values of discs with the v2.0 release.

So if that is the only thing that is "rubbing you the wrong way" you should be good to go and join right now and start switching.

Joliet, I like that donation idea and especially if they use it to buy new discs to add to the network.

Looking forward to switching with you guys!

Wow, that's a bunch of movies you got from Peerflix, that be about 215 titles @ .99(plus the 1 or 2 you got with your initial $10 peerbux purchase). I'm getting there and honestly they are coming about as fast as I want. LOL...sometimes I even throttle myself.

, I could buy a LOT of switchbux and still come out ahead -- assuming Switchdiscs does indeed grow as I expect it will. And I have no intention of buying switchbux, anyway.

Well, right out of the gate...hypothetically speaking, 225 dollars worth of switchbucs could get 1 HBO series season, plus 2-3 or more recent released movies, based on suggested value(which appears to be what many of the available titles are listed at). Then just watch & switch, repeat...assuming an increase in title availability, and title value reconciliation.

Yes & No, as value changes are upcoming in the next release, the exact changes/adjustments remain to be seen.

You can donate now, buy some switchbucs...different means, same end.

Hey Ky_Flixer,

I know you have a bad taste in your mouth with peerflix and how they say things but don't get them done...or most of the time say nothing and still don't get anything done. But over here at switchdiscs Chris and his team get things done. When they say they are going to do something they do it.

It's an AMAZING concept I know but a simple one too...and switchdiscs gets it.

No bad taste here... overall, I've enoyed a positive experience with Peerflix. Warts & all, I get movies that I want, via a relatively simple manner/format(minimal hands on, or hand holdin' involved), quite frequently and at very reasonable cost ...and that is all that truly matters to me. Though I'd never be close-minded to a better deal in re: my DVD viewing/trading habits.

It's good to hear your experience with Peerflix has been a good one Ky_Flixer. Some of our members trade on multiple sites so that's always an option. If one trading site is all you need and Peerflix works for you that's awesome. We aren't trying to be the only media trading service around and I think having a couple different services to choose from is a good thing.

Hey if Google, Yahoo and MSN can share the search world I think there is more then enough room for a couple media trading sites. :wink:

cheers,
Chris

gawd love American capitalism, no matter the face, isn't it grand...indeed, options & opportunitys for one and all.

And Chris, I have to admit that if you can get the SwitchDiscs economy to resemble something less like a former Soviet republic than it does now, you'll likely see my discs on your site as well.

SD_Chris · 05-13-06, 12:41

I look forward to switching with you in June AkiraKaneda!

Ditto!
