Can a DVD addict find happiness through a mail-order rental business?
I don’t know what it is about the many DVD rent-by-mail operations popping up around Australia that initially put me off. Is it the fact that DVDs wouldn’t fit in my mailbox anyway, and walking past the video rental store to pick up undeliverable DVDs at the Post Office didn’t seem like the greatest of ideas? Or maybe it’s just the fact I imagined the selection would about the same as trying to pick a good flick from the video section at Woolies. Or is it simply the involvement of the Post Off … erm, never mind. Don’t want to upset any postal workers. But other people I knew were joining these schemes … and liking them. What did they know that I didn’t? There was nothing else to do but join one myself. First of all, if you’ve been a sceptic like me, it’s probably best to take a quick look at how these things work.
