Tuesday I finally got up the nerve to cancel my Hollywood Video account.  I had the unlimited MVP account that remained at 9.99 a month despite two price increases over the years.  I'd held onto it mostly because they told me it would always stay at that price unless I ended the account and restarted (then it would go up to $16.99).  Well, I got that Blockbuster total access and have had it a little while, and it was more convenient, has a better selection, and is the same price as the Hollywood.  I didn't need both, so to save money - I canceled the Hollywood.

Today in my email I get a message from Blockbuster saying my account would increase to $11.99.  So, basically a 20% increase only a couple of months after I joined.  Had I gotten this email Monday I might not have canceled the Hollywood account.  

I'm annoyed.

I decided I'm going to cancel the Blockbuster account for now (mostly out of spite) and spend a few months thinking about it.  It will also give me that much more time away from the Television, and all those movies will still be there when I decide to rejoin. :-)

If I'm desperate to watch a popular movie I can always rent from the HEB DVD vending machine...... hahaha.
