Does Netflix streaming selections change often?

I just downloaded the NetFlix 7MC plugin and signed up for a trail month. I must say I really like the ease at which I can stream movies. And even over my slow DSL line, there is no download issues as I feared. But there is almost no selection. Do the streaming selections change often? If so how often? If not, I will probably be through all of the streaming videos I want to watch in my trail month and there will be no need to continue.

I find there's a huge selection.

Yes, it changes now and again. But probably not often enough or in a direction that would suit someone who isn't interested in it today.

Well you are right there is a fairly large selection. So maybe I should correct my statement. There is little of interest to me. Seems everything I search for is only on DVD. For example I searched for Sahara. Only on DVD. I am a huge 007 fan. Sean Connery is my favorite followed by Roger Moore. Not one on streaming. Only one Terminator, whay not all of the Arnold flics?

TV very low selection too. I was excited to see Mythbusters (I have had DirectTV discontinued and am having sort of buyers remorse in reverse :) ), sadly there was only one old episode of Mythbusters. I expected to find Gilligan's Island, Munsters, Andy Griffith basically all of the old classics. There are a few shows I like but they are already available OTA.

Back the truck up. Mythbusters:

I count 80 episodes.

So maybe it's your search-fu that needs tuned up.
