Renting movies by post is a straightforward process, due to something we like to call the web. The customer simply must request a Blu-ray rental account online and uses the on-line interface to request copies of the movies they want and also the order in which they might like to receive them.

The films are then dispatched to the customers address with a pre-paid return envelope. All the customer then must do is pop the movies back in the post once they have finished watching them.

There a number of different packages available when renting movies online, that start from as low as Ł3.88 each month for up to two films a month with the customer receiving only one at a time (at time of writing). You can find higher priced packages available where you can keep up to 3 movies at a time whilst borrowing an unlimited number each month.

Whilst the number of movies you may borrow monthly will never be as many as which are available throughout the movie premium channels on tv, you shall have access to the-latest releases much earlier when renting.

On top of that, the alternatives at the moment are not so great. Streaming movies via the web is still in its infancy and is quite costly, also renting via your TV service is comparatively very costly (renting online is half the price of just one pay per view movie for example).

There is only one person whom can decide whether renting movies by post is right for you, and thankfully to help unsure customers make up their minds most Blu-ray rental companies offer generous free movies online trials that can last up to 30-days. So my advice will be is to try prior to deciding to buy to ensure you fully utilise the service.
