I just dropped Platinum, went 3 weeks without seeing a movie I wanted to watch on any of the movie channels. I'll probably try Netflix through my Xbox if I get the movie bug again soon. Plus, I took $5 of the $10 saved and doubled my DSL speed
I believe it's only worth it if you watch the channels, like myke123abc said.

I dropped platinum and did the 8.99 netflix. It's a much better value for my viewing habits.
I've not found a single movie on Epix that intrest me.
If Fios is making their customer Pay $10 just for Epix, then Verizon is on crack.
But for $10 a month that pack is a good value, that doesn't always mean you can't live without it.
Just do what I do with all the premiums, Look through the 14 day guide, if nothing intrest you , the drop the package.
Honestly each week I surf through the movie channels on the Platinum HD package and always find great movies to record, and during downtime I have a nice collection to pick from -- most of which aren't available on Netflix streaming.
So for me it's worth it...
If I had heard on it here as being definite I must have forgot, but if Sony's new HD movie channel is going live in the platinum package as of Oct. 1(like Sony's site says on Channel 386) that's even more movie value.
