One of the many great things about living in the Bay Area is the number of great places from which to rent movies. While folks in the fly-over are stuck with Hollywood, Blockbuster, or the endangered mom & pop type places, here we have an an embarassment of riches.

With the advent of several video delivery services, however, the country is put on a much more even playing field. SFist is a subscriber to Los Gatos based Netflix, and we hear great things about San Francisco based GreenCine. There's a DVD rental service from Walmart, but we try not to think about it.
