Blockbuster launched its online DVD rental
service in response to the success of Netflix. No longer able to
compete with Netflix solely with retail store locations nationwide,
Blockbuster launched Total Access, its online DVD rental service. The
way Blockbuster Total Access works very closely mirrors the process
Netflix uses. You select the titles you want online, they are added to
your queue, and are then sent to you in the mail. You can keep the
movies as long as you like; however, you must return a DVD to get the
next title in your queue sent. Their 2 week free trial allows you to
choose from over 90,000 titles, with free in-store exchanges, depending
on your plan. You can add movies to your queue while they are still in
theaters, ensuring that you will receive it as soon as it is released
on DVD. Take a 2 week trial of this service and see what you think.
Netflix is a DVD rental service that is booming
despite the trying economic times our society is facing. With DVD
rentals on the rise, Netflix is dominating the DVD rental industry.
Focused on an enhanced customer experience to increase customer
loyalty, Netflix offers subscription plans that fit a wide range of
consumer budgets. You simply select the movies you would like to
receive online, adding the desired titles to your account’s queue. You
receive a DVD in the mail, and can watch it without having to worry
about late fees. As soon as you return your DVD, the next selection in
your queue is mailed to you. For those preferring not to go the postal
mail route, Netflix offers an “Instant Watching” service that streams
movies directly to your computer. Check out the wide variety of
subscription packages to see which one fits best with your lifestyle
and budget.
