All the movies all of the time...
For about three years now, my wife Susan and I have been renting our videos through the mail. We use Blockbuster and the service has always worked out great for us. We pay a set monthly fee and in exchange we receive an unlimited number of videos every month. As soon as we watch one, we either mail it back in a prepaid mailer or we take it to a local Blockbuster and exchange it for another movie (at no additional cost). We've usually got 3 videos out at a time and what is really nice about it is that we aren't on any deadlines to return them. We can watch movies on our own schedule and we don't have to worry about making repeated trips to the video store, which is nice since we don't live very close to one. Blockbuster provides us a queue at their Web site, we simply visit the site, select the movies we want to watch and in the order we want to receive them and that is it - it can't get much easier than that!
