Anyone try dvdbarn?

Just like the title says. Has anyone tried dvdbarn.com? I noticed them in the press release about Netflix.

Yes, they're quite good. What's cool about DVDBarn is that they'll send you your next batch of DVDs in your queue without having received what you returned to them.

For example, if you're on the 3 out-at-a-time plan, you can note up to 2 of those DVDs being "in the mail" and they'll send out the next two in your queue.

I recently signed up for a free two-week at NetFlix and what I noticed was the complete absence of new releases. Swordfish? was their #1 renter and their "new releases" had months-old releases. What's up with that?

DVDBarn has all the new releases. It's over-all catalogue isn't as deep as Netflix (e.g. Foreign) - however, I would have to say DVDBarn's better than Netflix. Of course, I have an advantage I live in the city where it's located (Scottsdale, Arizona) so I mostly get my DVDs the next day after shipping. And I've even dropped by their office to return DVDs!
