That depends. If you’re thinking about getting her the DVD-only service (soon to be Qwikster), and she likes movies, then I say sure, it’s a good gift. If you’re thinking about the streaming and DVD combo package, then it would depend on 1) if she’s comfortable using the internet to stream content and 2) does she have a set-top device that can stream content to her TV and not just her computer? We have game console that can download a Netflix app that allows us to stream movies onto our TV. Hope that helps!
