Hi All

I am newbie so please excuse any errors...they are all mine!

I started with Lovefilm Feb 2005 and at first thought Wow this is the way to rent movies.... Then the rot set in, around 3 months ago, service slowed right down to maybe 3 dvds per week. Some might see that as a good deal, BUT they are missing the point I signed up for Unlimited 3 at a time service, no mention of fair use policy. Besides who decides what is fair, yep Lovefilm.
Current listing on Google... LOVEFiLM: Rent unlimited DVDs in the UK for only 9.99 per month. All postage paid. No late fees. No due dates. No strings. No fuss. Free trial period. "unlimited, No Strings" Also rarely got dvds in top 20. So I moved to Blockbuster....

Blockbuster; I love that they give you extras disc or disc 2 along with Disc 1, way to go.... Faster turnaround that Lovefilm, especially as BB operate on Sats. However rarely got DVD in my top 40, even though I moved them around my list.

Then I moved to Cinema Paradiso, been with tham 2 weeks now and I have had 5 DVDs in my 10, would have been 6 but wrong dvd in case... Sods law, I saw the movie in case on release at cinema a few months back.

So to summarise. Out of 5 stars

Lovefilm *
Blockbuster ***
Cinema Paradiso ****

Any views?

Paul
