    I used one of the above for a while.
    Their choice was bad and more dated ( ie slower to have new releases) in comparison to the local xtravision.
    And the postal delays were a pain.
    You probably wouldn't get to see more than 2 vid's in a week and if theres a bank holiday or you can't get to a post box, you won't get the full value.
    Also bear in mind that , when you get one in the post , you *may* not be in the mood to watch it, or too tired or whatever, yet you are paying monthly or whatever for the service, in which case you get less value.
    At least when you make the effort to go down to the local shop, you know that you are in the mood to watch a film.

    whereas, with these services you are committing yourself to watching at least 2-3 films a week to get your moneys worth.

    If you think you will, and the system suits, then give it a try for a while.

    but u can keep the DVD for a month.

    You can get 8 rentals out in one month for €19.99. Of course you have to send them back to get your next DVD. So then its up to the post.

    But I would say that that is better then xtravision at €4.75 per DVD. And there are no late fees. and WB wanted to raise it to €5.

    I signed up but never bothered to use the service, as i gave no bank details.
