Why DVD Rental Services?


In today's world of rushing from place to place, meeting deadline after deadline, wouldn't it be nice if you could control something at your own pace? With online DVD rental services, you do just that.

Online DVD rental services are convenient—they allow you to find, rent and watch your movies when YOU are ready. There aren't return dates or late fees for DVD rentals, giving you freedom to keep movies as long as you like.

On selection, some online DVD rental services offer 60,000 separate titles—try finding that kind of movie selection at the video store down the street! And to help you find just the right movie, most DVD rental services offer several search tools; you can look up movies by title, actor, director or search by genre.

But probably the best part of using an online DVD rental service is the ability to customize your membership—you can pick a plan that matches your DVD rental style. On this site, DVD Rental Review, you'll find articles, news stories and comprehensive DVD rental reviews that can help you choose the online DVD rental service that best fits your needs.


What to Look for in a DVD Rental Service

An online DVD rental service should offer a broad feature set and a large movie selection, easy to use search tools, quick arrival times and a variety of membership plans. Here are the criteria TopTenREVIEWS used to evaluate DVD rental services:

  • Feature Set – Online DVD rental services should go beyond the average DVD rental experience; DVD rental services should offer free, two–way shipping, should not charge late fees and should offer a free, trial membership. DVD rental services should also make movie previews and critical reviews available and should allow you to cancel your membership at any time.
  • Movie Selection – A DVD rental service should offer a wide variety of movie genres (like Classics, Comedy, Foreign Films, Special Interest and so on) with a large number of titles within each genre.
  • Search Capabilities – We look for DVD rental services that make searching for a movie easy by offering several search methods, such as title, actor and director searches. The DVD rental service should also include a simple way to sort movies by genre and then by MPAA film rating, by year released or by member ranking.
  • Movie Arrival Time – Convenience is a major factor in the decision to use an online DVD rental service, so the length of time it takes to receive a movie is extremely important to customers. DVD rental services should have multiple distribution centers throughout the United States to keep arrival times short. Shipping times longer than two or three days is just too long.
  • Movie Information – Many online DVD rental websites announce new releases on their main movie page as well as a list of movies coming soon. A user–friendly website will provide information about each movie such as the synopsis, rating, actors, director and the studio that produced the movie. In addition, a good rental website will also provide movie trailers to help you decide what to rent.
  • So whether you want more convenience, more selection, or more flexibility, online DVD rental services simply do a better job of bringing movies home. Click here to read about our top-ranked online DVD rental service.
