    This is actually quite good, decent selection yet only in beta

    Works with ROI clubcard, Use BT11AA postcode

    Not open to ROI.

    Signed up... can't complain - The Shawshank Redemption and Ocean's Eleven are the two best I've seen on it.. the former being one of my favourite movies.

    Free is free but until it's available on Apple TV / Smart TV, I'll never use it!
    Not open to ROI.
    Was able to register fine (popped in 'BT1 1AA' as postcode) and I'm browsing the selection..

    .. does the limitation occur when you click play? Says I need Silvernight and balls if I'm installing that!

    EDIT: Actually, just needed to upgrade Silverlight (horrible!). Works fine though so using 'BT1 1AA' as postcode is the way to go.

    Signed up with Irish clubcard and used BT11AA as postcode, played Shawshank to test work fine, seems to be good quaility.:D

    Not a great selection of movies, haven't heard of most of them, most look like low budget TV/straight to DVD stuff. Might be worth a look if you're not too fussy though, it is FREE (for now) after all :)

    I think this is the old Blinkbox site which Tesco took over last year. The content is a bit sparse at the moment (there was a fair bit more on Blinkbox) but hopefully they will flesh it out in the coming months

    the idea of it is that the ads that they have during the film are based on your spending habits which they get from your clubcard.

    Thanks for that. Also if you have bought a dvd from Tesco you can watch it online :D

    Clubcard TV director Scott Deutrom boasted on his blog that "we can target adverts based on what our customers bought yesterday" (a Tesco spokesperson later claimed this was just "a vision" at the moment). http://www.guardian.co.uk/money/2013/jun/08/supermarkets-get-your-data
