There was a time, within the not so distant past, when a trip out to the local video store with the family was a weekly or monthly treat. If you were lucky enough to have a larger video rental store that had multiple copies of new releases and thousands of DVDs on hand, there was a good chance you could find movies to suit everybody. But a few things have happened since those days that have rendered video rental stores all but obsolete.
To start, big box outlets such as Blockbuster have been driven out of the bricks and mortar video rental business to seek salvation online. For many of us, our video stores are nothing more than corner convenience stores with several hundred movies on hand at any time. Space is at a premium of such guys so they may only afford to have a few copies of new releases along with a smattering of older movie rental titles on hand at any time. It's really a bit frustrating to drive out only to seek out the movie you had your heart set on is always out.
Furthermore, next day returns and the inconvenience which it implies, usually finds us racking up late fees that often would have worked-out cheaper for us if we'd bought the DVD instead. And what for anyone who is heading out on a road trip or to the cottage for a weekend - 24 hour rental periods just do not cut it for a whole lot of us. And what about the actual rental fee? $3 or maybe more per movie rental? Everybody with a cable or satellite subscription has access to pay-per-view movie rentals, and also the concept is fairly sound. The downside is the fact that typical pay-per-view rentals cost $5 or more. I'm not sure the convenience may be worth that far more.
Maybe it's time you rent movies online!
Why? Well, rather than run on about online movie rental and why it's the proper choice for you, allow me to state my case with the following list of 10 Reasons It's Time For you to Rent Movies Online!
Selection. If you rent movies online from instant movie streaming or DVD by mail providers, you will generally get access to anywhere from around a couple of thousand up to 80,000+ movie and television titles to pick from. The local video store probably cannot hold a match to that kind of selection.
Availability. In all but a couple of rare exceptions, the film you want is available. Most DVD by mail services have hundreds of copies of individual movie titles on hand. Instant movie streaming services like Netflix have no limitation on how many subscribers watch individual movie titles. If you rent movies online, your favorites are almost always available.
Savings. Whenever you rent movies online from DVD by mail services, they typically have subscription plans that allow several DVD rentals, some even unlimited, per 30 days for monthly fees as little as $5.95. Even when you only rent movies online only two times a month, you are already ahead. With instant video streaming services, typical plans run from about $8+ a month or, if you select a per rental provider for example iTunes or YouTube, you will typically pay $0.99 - $3.99 per online movie rental. However the second could be close in price to what you are currently paying at the local video store, you may need to aspect in both points 1 and 2 (Selection, Availability) and, more importantly, point 4 which is "Convenience".
Convenience. Your local video outlet or convenience store will never be as easy for you as when you rent movies online. Bottom line - shopping for an online movie rental from your computer, tablet or TV means you never have to leave the home for movie night again. And online movie rental providers are open 24/7 that means, you may rent movies online anytime you want, day or night, from just about anywhere. Instant video streaming services make it possible for you to choose a movie and start watching right away. DVD by mail services will deliver movies to your mailbox, for free full movie, within 1 - 3 days.
No late fees - ever! This really is a big one for me as well as perhaps for you also. Whenever you rent movies online from instant video streaming services you generally have up to 30 days to start watching your movie and 24 to 48 hours to watch it as often while you like. Next period has elapsed, the rental is automatically deleted through your rental library. If you rent movies from an unlimited subscription provider such as Netflix then there's absolutely no limitation on the range of times you watch a movie and you never have to remember to return it. On the DVD by mail side, they do not have due dates or late fees. Instead, they usually put a cap on how many DVD movies you can rent at one time. You can hold on to them for days, weeks or months and send them back whenever you are done. This really is especially handy when renting children's movies as, all of us know, they could watch the exact same movie several times a day for days on end.
Browsing. The local video store will usually have a wall or section dedicated to new releases. The rest of their catalog will either be organized alphabetically or by genre or never. Browsing for movie titles can take hours if you are undecided. When you rent movies online, all providers offer easy to use sites that permit you to look for movies alphabetically, by genre, by year, by director, by actor, by rating and even more. Picking a film to watch online is a cinch.
TV Shows and special genres. I know this kind of falls under "Selection" although the fact is, most smaller video stores just do not stock Seasons of your favorite TV shows. And they generally don't carry much in the way of Foreign language films, Documentaries or maybe more obscure movies.
Interactive features. One nice thing about online movie rentals when browsing your provider's website will be the capability to watch trailers, read viewer reviews and lots of offer a suggestion feature that can provide you with similar titles that you should check out.
Flexibility. When you rent movies online for download or to watch instantly, you have a number of options as far as devices go. You may watch on Internet enabled TVs, BluRay players, gaming consoles such as Wii - Xbox - PS3, PC, Mac, tablets as well as other handheld devices. Granted, not all services enable you to stream on all of these devices, but you definitely aren't restricted to just watching on your TV.
Options. Most small towns or neighborhoods might only have a couple of video rental stores that you should choose from and most with more or less the same selection and pricing. When you rent movies online, you have more options at your disposal. You are free to choose a DVD by mail or instant movie streaming provider and should you not like their selection or service you may try out a host of other providers. None of them have long-term contracts to bind you to their service.
