Have Brits fallen for Netflix, or do they still LoveFilm?

Tried both Netflix and LoveFilm instant

Contentwise, I didn't find BIG difference between the two.

I choose Netflix at the end simply because for the ease of use, I also found their recommendation engine is good.

I had many troubles with LoveFilm, the user interface is really behind and the app experience on the PS3 was horrible.

Both need more content though.

Re: Dunno -- there's a point

"Of course it is. Apple's design philosophy has always been about making its users think as little as possible."

Whats wrong with that :-D

Do you really want to use your brain while using a TV or mobile phone? instead of using your brain to use the services on top (such as apps or media)

RE: Still don't quite understand how...

Simply because of much better user experience and the wow factor of the design... started by the iPhone and then Android followed the same route.

Beastly Android will batter Apple's iOS beauty

Android devices are cheaper

and that's why they have bigger market share because more people afford to get them, that doesn't mean that Android users are willing to pay more...

if you ask me as developer (despite Apple's "closed" approach) I would prefer developing applications for iPhone rather than Android (at least for the next couple of years) for better user experience, better development environment and more mature app store. unless android provide more polished experience.

I found this interesting market comparison which reflect developers satisfactions:
