I'm curious if anyone here uses anything other than the Netflix website to manage his/her queue? I just stumbled across FlixQueue (http://www.5hyphen.com/FlixQueue/index.htm) and see that there are also some other third party program options.

What do you like about them over the Netflix native queue manager? I noticed that Flix Queue has cost to rent stats and more robust search features which I'm going to check out. Will report back...

Anyone have any other recommendations?

Flix Queue seems to be a bust... doesn't read the queue right, only has a bunch of untranslated code after logging-in. :(

I would strongly suggest changing your Netflix password...

Why use 3rd party software? I would assume you would need to be online for it to work so why not just go to the wbesite?

I'm not overly-impressed with Netflix search capabilities. I rent BluRay discs and to search for BluRay in a certain genre like Action is impossible with the website the way it's currently setup. I'd like something more robust than they way Netflix currently treats BR, which is as a Genre all to itself, which is silly. BluRay isn't a genre, it's a disc format.
