I had service for approximately 2 years, and I consistently watched them sit on my discs for 1-2 extra days. When the KC distribution center became operational, my transit times improved, but that was when I really started to notice them not processing my returned discs. I finally got sick of it and switched to Blockbuster...but they're even worse, heh. I've had more discs broken and incorrect in 2.5 months with Blockbuster than I had in >2 years with Netflix.
