What to use for Online movie streaming

#1

So I have found that Neflix online version has a really limited content. Now that I have done away with my cable boxes, VOD for Time Warner is not an option. In the US, what are the best options for streaming new(er) movies? What interface do you use? I am looking for movies and not TV shows.

Thanks!

Vudu, but it costs a fortune ($6 per HD title). I use my blu-ray player for all streaming and discs. I get new releases on disc from redbox for a fraction of the cost of streaming ($1.50 for BD, $1 for DVD). I do have to wait a bit longer.

Redbox has announced a streaming service coming soon which I would expect to be cheaper than Vudu.
