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

The movies are then dispatched to the customers address with a pre-paid return envelope. All the customer then has to do is pop the films back within the post when they have finished watching full movies online them.

There a number of different packages available when renting movies online, that start from as low as Ł3.88 per 30 days for up to two films a month with the customer receiving only one at a time (at time of writing). There are actually higher priced packages available in which you can keep up to 3 movies at a time whilst borrowing an unlimited number monthly.

Whilst the number of movies you may borrow per 30 days will never be as many as that are available through the movie premium channels on television, you shall have access to the latest releases much earlier when renting.

Furthermore, the alternatives at the minute are not so excellent. Streaming movies via the net is still in its infancy and will be very costly, also renting via your TV service is comparatively quite expensive (renting online is half the cost of just one pay per view movie for example).

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