Its standard plan is $16.99 per month to have up to three DVDs out at a time, but it also offers a $13.99 plan that allows you to have two at a time, or $8.99 for one at a time, and (2) Blockbuster Online, which offers new members their first month of three DVDs at a time for 50 percent off, or $9.99 (three DVDs at a time).
