The two major DVD rental services, Blockbuster and Netflix, will provide the delivery with an average of 1 business day as they have shipping points all across the United States. It may take a little bit longer, up to 4 business days, to receive DVDs with other companies.
How many DVDs can I watch every month?The number of DVDs you can watch depends on a number of factors, including how quickly you watch and return your DVDs and which membership plan you have selected. You get the DVDs in First Class Mail with prepaid envelop. As soon as you return a DVD, the next one from your list will be mailed to you. So the faster you return DVDs, the more you'll able to watch every month.
Can I cancel anytime?Absolutely. You can easily cancel your DVD rental membership anytime, online, 24 hours a day, or by callilng a tool-free number. There are no cancellation fees. If you cancel during your trial period, you won't be charged at all.
Does any company carry high-definition movies?Both Netflix and Blockbuster carry hundreds of high-definition movies in Blu-ray format. Most of the major studios have been releasing their high-definition titles exclusively on the Blu-ray format. That's why Netflix and Blockbuster no longer carry movies in the HD DVD high-definition format.
Are there any hidden fees?None of the services that we have reviewed has any hidden fees. Shipping is always free both ways as each mailed DVD comes with prepaid envelope. You only pay the fixed subscription fee plus tax.
Can I rent games?Netflix doesn't carry games. You can rent games from Blockbuster if you exchange a DVD at their local store, but their online catalog doesn't have games. DVD Avenue carries about 650 games which can be played on PS1, PS2, and Xbox.
Can I rent adult movies?DVD Avenue is the only major online DVD rental service to carry adult titles. Blockbuster and Netflix don't carry adult movies.
