slippers Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 See it's getting alot of advertising lately! Had a look a while back and wasn't great. The product seems to be alot better. Tv and films are alot more up to date than the last time I checked! Link to comment
thebladder Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 had lovefilm many years ago and it used to take them ages to turn round the discs so I cancelled. Thought about signing up again to see what the ps3 streaming is like, but it is such a pain in the hoop to cancel that I dont think I'll bother. Link to comment
Dynamo Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 My mate got it last month and he got 2 cards/vouchers to give to others for a 2 month free trial so I got one of them. It's good, and surprised with the speed of the disc turnaround...i.e I'll post 2 discs this afternoon and will have another 2 by Thursday. Been using it to watch the Sopranos. Link to comment

I remember the first few DVDs I got, Goodfellas if I remember right, was double sided. You got half the way through and BAM "please turn over the disk.." ffs. I quite fancy the PS3 streaming, but not sure how well my broadband could handle it. Plus I have a flakey connection when I plug an ethernet cable into the back. Link to comment
slippers Posted October 4, 2011 Author Share Posted October 4, 2011 Yeah same here stand free if I was 2 join it would be for the streaming not the DVD delivery! Just wondered wht the streaming was like. I'm a bit the same my connection is pretty bad at times so possibly wouldn't work very well? Link to comment
ollie1903 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Just cancelled my Lovefilm. Had an unlimited subscription but didn't use it often enough to justify it. Sometimes had a disc for 3 or 4 weeks. I've signed up for Audible now for which I get 1 audiobook per month sent to my phone for Link to comment

I've heard that it's pretty good from a guy at my work, although you only get a few hours worth of streaming a week unless you pay for the premium subscription. They should say you are allowed 2 or 3 movies a week. Which is roughly how much you'd get using the postal service. Link to comment

May just get apple tv instead but I'd hav 2 pay for everything I use then! Link to comment

Would possibly persuade me 2 buy my blurays (hd) on iTunes though amd stream from computer to apple tv as they r cheaper! But the output is not full hd on apple tv! Link to comment
slippers Posted October 4, 2011 Author Share Posted October 4, 2011 It was the fact I could stream tv was the main thing for me! For example being able to say I fancy watching 24 I can go bak 2 season 1 ep 1 and stream 1 after another! I can only hope tht one day netflix arrives in the uk Link to comment
bruceg1978 Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 We use it and have no complaints, just took the basic package of 2 films per month. Link to comment
RAZOR Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Ok just signed up to this. You click 'rent' and it goes to your rental list. Then what? Do you have to confirm it any way? Link to comment
