Default Blockbuster total access???

How does it work? Do you get unlimited rentals for the whole month?

What does this mean:

*BLOCKBUSTER Total Access In-store exchange: In-store exchange of online DVD rentals is good for free movie rentals and discounted game rentals only. Some plans limit the number of in-store exchanges per calendar month. Exchanges for discounted game rentals count towards monthly exchange limit. Online DVD rentals must be presented at the checkout counter of a participating BLOCKBUSTER® store in the return mail envelope provided by BLOCKBUSTER Online. In-store movie rental or discounted game rental must be taken in same transaction as online movie return. Separate, complimentary in-store membership required. In-store rentals are subject to store rental terms and conditions, including due dates and charges which may apply to rentals not returned by the due date. Your store membership account must be in good standing for you to use your free or discounted in-store rentals, including coupons (if any) and BLOCKBUSTER Total Access exchanges. If your account is not in good standing the store may not allow you to rent until your account is brought back into good standing. You may still return online rentals to a participating store. See store for complete in-store rental terms and conditions. In-store rentals must be returned to the store where they were originally rented. See your receipt for store location and due dates.

Correct. And when you drop it off, it is the same as them receiving it in the mail and they immediately mail out another dvd.

The only reasons we switched back to netflix:
1. You used to get a free game a month
2. The prices went up

I've had it for about 9 months and haven't been disappointed at all.

You also get one e-coupon a month for a free movie (and possibly game?) rental.

The only think that I can think of that would make Netflix more appealing is that they have more movie choices available. h:
