I use Netflix for some older releases, documentaries, and TV series. They have a decent selection of things I hadn't seen, so I watched Breaking Bad, Weeds, Battlestar Galactica, Orange is the New Black, and X-Files through them, as well as some movies I missed when they came out.
I use HBO Go for more recent releases, and for their excellent series. I've seen Game of Thrones, Sopranos, The Wire, Oz, Boardwalk Empire, and a bunch of others through here. Some good documentaries, and excellent boxing coverage. Plus, it's free with my HBO subscription.
I use Apple TV for very recent movies (which come with an on-demand rental fee). From here, I've seen all of the usual "just out of the theater" stuff.
I use Hulu Plus to see some of the older series that I missed, as well as current seasons of stuff I watch now. Occasionally, I'll see a movie on here that I want to check out, but it's pretty rare.
Although I have Amazon Prime, I haven't yet found anything I want to see using it.
Hope that helps explain the differences! Also, I highly recommend getting an Apple TV if you run a Mac, or a Roku if you run Windows or Linux. Streaming movies right to your TV is really nice, if you torrent current-releases, or harder-to-find stuff. Plus, it makes Netflix and all of the other services super-easy to interface with.
