I've tried both out and to be honest right now neither are very good.
Lovefilm has a much better library but with the caveat that you can't actually stream many of them, only rent out the discs, which is very stupid. The Lovefilm player is also hit and miss, sometimes it just won't work or buffer every 5 seconds making it unwatchable.
Netflix has a much better player and everything on there you can stream, but because it has only just been released in the UK the library is pathetic, about 1/10 the size of the US one and not much is being added. Whether it's rights issues or whatever I don't know but it's pretty worthless until they can get tonnes more content up there.
So right now neither are worth subscribing to IMO
