I am unable to understand this post. But well some points are useful for me.

i used to just stuff the dvds into the envelope willy nilly, until I noticed the little opening in the front of the envelope matched up with the bar code on the DVD, so now I make sure that the bar code shows through the little opening. i think (hope) this makes for a faster processing time which means i get my new movies faster!

I use the i.TV app on my iPhone to manage my Netflix queue - you can search, add, delete, drag and drop items directly in your queue. It also functions as a TV guide, and allows you to easily get to the Netflix page for a movie or TV show from the TV guide. I love it, and it's free. :) I believe you can also use it to manage TiVo, but I don't know since I don't have a TiVo.

iFlix is still in the App Store, but they had to change their name. It is now iPhlix. I love it. http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=287644896&mt=8

Another useful trick is Netflix Friends! So many people don't realize the community features that Netflix has on their site. You can invite anyone to be your friend on Netflix, which allows you to see how much they liked a movie as you're browsing Netflix. You can also see their queue and rated movies. And it tells your your movie similarity to your friends. You can also leave notes to your friends about certain movies. I use the feature a lot! Knowing if my friends like (or don't like) a movie, really help me judge if I will like it.
