I had the 5 at once plan for almost 2 years. I can't say for sure I've experienced the throttling, but I definitely have noticed waiting longer for new titles. I'm not exactly sure how the save feature works (adding titles to your que that aren't yet released on dvd), but for example, I added the movie Serenity to my list before it was out in theatres. It was released late december and I had to wait till the end of february to recieve it. I experienced the same thing with episode 3, but that may be a good thing depending on your point of view.
I'd imagine first add to your list, first serve but I guess not. Otherwise I've never had a problem with the service, I quite often move 10 dvds a week and that's perfectly acceptable to me. At the same time calling their service 'unlimited' really is a bit of a lie then. My cable company does the same thing, they call it unlimited service but one month I was restricted for uploading to much.
Either way I can't see it reason enough to get rid of it, even if you're not 'backing up' the media it's still the best deal on renting movies anywhere, and I don't have to actually go out and get it, unless you count walking to the mailbox.
I think the point here is people feel they've been lied to, unlimited is a myth in just about any business agreement.
