I've been using Peerflix for 3 months now, since the Mercury News article. On the surface it seems like a good idea. However my results have been pretty disappointing. I did receive the free DVD, and in general most of the DVDs I've received have been good quality. One wasn't and Peerflix took care of it. I mailed it back to them and someone else in the system mailed me another copy.

However, at this point I'm pretty fed up with the system. The flaw in the business model is that people don't keep up with sending what other members want. My Peerbux count has built up so high that I've stopped sending DVDs. I haven't received any DVDs in weeks now. I've even gone so far as to choose a DVD I don't want very much but the system shows 30 copies available. I figure if the system is working someone in the group of 30 will send me a copy. None of the 30 people have sent me the DVD and I've been waiting 3 weeks now.

I am beginning to think the whole thing is a scam. I'm quite disappointed and won't send more DVDs until I receive 2-3 more.
