LoveFilm.com is a website that provides DVD and game rentals, downloads and purchases for a monthly fee or on a pay-as-you-go basis.
I have been a DVD rental user of LoveFilm for several years now and it has worked really well in my experience. You sign up for a monthly fee, add DVDs to an online list, and LoveFilm does the rest. They send you the next DVD on your list as soon as you return the previous one. There are no late fees and the website has a wide range of DVDs to choose from.
The website is organised into different categories and it’s easy to search for a particular film. I particularly like the ability to search for all films with a specific actor or directed by a specific director because I often like to view ‘DVD themes’ over several days/weeks. All films with Keira Knightley for example!
The website also allows you to purchase or download films and rent games - although I am not really a gamer myself.
Additionally, you can review and rate DVDs that you rent. There are some amusing and sometimes quite opposing views on some DVDs! It’s useful to see other reviews and ratings but I usually tend to go with what I think I will like.
Another benefit I have found is that my cinematographic knowledge has increased greatly since I have been using LoveFilm. Always handy for those pub quiz evenings!
If you want to watch DVDs with the minimum of fuss, I think LoveFilm does this really well. They offer a free trial. Why not try it and see?!
