Blockbuster.com old or new website?

[jgantert]

Just curious if you go to www.blockbuster.com if you get:

The old website: http://www.blockbuster.com/homepages/LoadBlockbusterHomepage.action

The new website:
http://beta.blockbuster.com/online/home

For me, at home I usually get the old website. At work, I always get the new website.

Just wondering if anyone knows a way to always get the old website?

Thanks,
-John

Looks like Blockbuster fixed this problem. If you go to www.blockbuster.com/online/home it goes to the new website now.

Oh well, HDDVD must be a thing of the past for BB. They went from 148 HDDVDs to under 100 with the new website.

I prefer the old website, detail info included all language tracks and subtitles.

Selection on new website is reduced, for instance several versions of Robotech are not listed as they were before making it difficult to find, and generic descriptions are given on some titles.

The old web site was better IMO.

BB's new site has to be one of the absolute poorest designed sites in the mainstream today. It's very slow, clunky, it lacks the informational value and capabilities the old one had. Try and print out your list and you have to click out of the scripting error notification twice for every movie you have in queue. Movies shown in the old sites library have vanished with no logical explanation from the BB staff.
Ratings cannot be changed, movies will mysteriously change order in the queue, you can no longer see the progress ("in shipping process" or "shipping soon") as you once could. The availability status is a joke too.
This site was apparently "designed" by children or very inexperienced writers. They should be ashamed of that along with the new secret way (Total Access) they use to throttle customers. Some of us are getting the raw end of that deal because not all stores participate. We get nothing to make up for that either.
