Netflix hands down.
A little note with BB. You have to pay a little more to get limited rentals from their store. And don't think your going to get your next DVD any faster in the mail if you drop it off at their store. You won't. I had to wait as long as a week after dropping off at their store. Another scam they use is mailing from another State to delay your deliver and the subsequent return to that out of State store. If they notice your trying for the quick turn around they delay your next request. Netflix is IMMEDIATE turn around.
When I cancelled with BB they had my last 3 DVD as returned on my Queue (their web site). And one of those returns was at their store. Then about 3 weeks later they're telling me they will charge me for not returning my last 3 DVD. Bad, bad service.
If you like to be scammed and get bad service go with BB. If you want consistent and quick service go with Netflix.

i rent HD-DVD or BLU-Ray movies
Netflix throttled me on the 3 at a time plan
what i mean by that was id send them back monday they would receive wednesday but they wouldnt ship new movies till the following monday.
so at most id get 10-11 movies a month on the unlimited plan- and thats if they were available.
blockbuster didnt have as many blu-ray movies so I just tried it and cancelled that too.
i watch moves while im working so I wud watch more than the average person I guess.
Of the two Netflix is better but the throttling issue is irritating.

I've discovered by simply checking timestamps on my email notifications that Netflix sends out my next Movie within a couple hours of my mailman taking the Return DVD out of my mailbox.
He scans the bar code immediately upon taking it out of my mailbox and it's obviously being fed fairly quickly to Netflix (ala any kind of good postal tracking system).
I've had over a dozen movies come through in a 10 day period as I watch three in a couple nights and ship them all together and the new three show up on about "Day 4"

Your experience is absolutely nothing like mine. If I mail a movie on Monday, 95% of the time they receive it early Tuesday morning, send out the next one on Tuesday and I receive it on Wednesday. Perhaps you don't have a distribution center near you? Maybe that's the reason. I'm in LA and the movies get sent nearby to Santa Ana.
Ayuh, that could be part of it.
As I noted in last post, the netflix DVDs are chalked up as "returned" within just a couple hours of the mailman scanning the bar code on the envelope.
If my own maildude got here in the AM hours instead of about 3pm, I'd probably see next DVD the following day.

no its a common piece of netflix fact that once you start racking up 20-25 movies a month you get profiled then they start this throttling deal.
you can search pretty much anywhere and see how many complaints there are over this.
but im looking at this roku thing which may get me back to netflix.
also just as a guide ive had netflix twice once in NJ and once in FL same thing in relation to throttling.
