It's been so long since I used physical media its unbelievable.

Last week one of my disks failed in my media server/arcade cab, so I turned it off until the new disk arrived. Because we don't have TV signal coming into the house (no terrestrial, no satellite, no cable) I was forced into digging out some DVDs from the loft. After much hunting through boxes I found some only to find my DVD player doesn't work.

I have never heard of a damn "rental" version. Man, the industry gets you anyway they can. Then they wonder why people pirate stuff.  :dunno

Over the pond we have  I Love Film.  I get some movies which are the basic, but sometimes there are special features.

For the little bit extra we can select a Xbox 360 title.  Well I haven't seen any yet.

The streaming service is not very good.

Turn around times are very good though.

RayB:
As long as they dont edit rentals, I have no problem with it. Anyone remember back in the 90's when Blockbuster, Musicworld and other rental places carried censored versions of certain movies, but it didn't say so on the box when you rented it.

I dont see what the big deal is, I never watch the extras.
