DVD rentals

DVD rentals

Dvd rentals are easier than ever. It used to be that one had to go to the local store and pay a rental fee, and then return the dvd quickly or else be charged fees which accumulated every day. Watching dvds was potentially expensive and rather anxiety-provoking at times.

Now, there are many companies that offer unlimited time dvd rentals for a low monthly fee. The largest companies are Netflix and Blockbuster online. There are companies online that are starting to offer lower fees than Netflix and Blockbuster, but they offer a smaller selection.

Once a person signs on for a monthly contract, he can make a wish list. The first 3 dvds on his list will be sent in the mail form the warehouse with a postage-paid return envelope right to the person’s house. Whenever the person is done watching the dvd, he can send it back in the envelope and the next dvd on the list will be sent to his house. Participants can have three dvd rentals at a time. Companies are currently competing for monthly rates, but most cost between $10 and $20 a month.

We were paying late fees and rental fees that ended up totaling at least that amount, so we tried the Blockbuster online dvd rental service. We’ve been very happy with it. The day after movies are mailed back, Blockbuster sends an email saying that they have received the movie, and sent the next one on our list. We are able to manage our list at any time, and they have good children’s dvds too. Dvd rentals are easy for us this way. We don’t worry about keeping a dvd as long as we are still interested in watching it. Also, Blockbuster sends us coupons for 3 free dvd rentals in Blockbuster stores per month. If we are interested in getting a dvd that is not yet available online, we sometimes use these coupons.

There are other online options for dvds, as well. There are clubs that a person could join where each member agrees to buy one dvd a month, watch it, and send it to the next person on the list, and so on. So, the cost for participating in the club is the same as the cost of a new dvd a month. It seems, though, as though it is cheaper to join one of the rental programs online. The club boasts that it’s better to own the dvds than rent them, but when you send them away, you don’t own them anymore.

Some people copy dvds on their computers. The FBI warns against that, and are interested in prosecuting those who do this. It is a crime. Movies can also be obtained online through file-sharing programs and saved on one’s computer. Be sure, if doing this, that you are not downloading illegally. Movie piracy is often being tracked and prosecuted.

Dvd rentals are much more convenient than they used to be, and there are more options available to today’s consumer at low prices.
