Advantages: Quick, easy, cheap

Disadvantages: They don't supply DVD case

I have just been with screenselect for around 1 month now, i have had over 6 DVD's with the 'unlimited a month, but 1 at home' plan, this basically means i can only have 1 DVD at a time, and i pay next month £9.99 for this service.

They have 34,500 + titles to choose from and if you are a football fan they even have season review DVD's aswell, they seem to have nearly every DVD there is. They have FREE and fast delivery, they give you a pouch to put the DVD back in once you've finished and you jsut put it in the letter box. Simple. There are No due dates or late fees which is great as if you don't get time to watch the DVD for a couple of days you don't have to pay to get it out again, or get a late fee. There is also no contracts which means you are able to cancel at anytime, which is also great.

One thing they don't supply you with is the DVD case, i like to read the back of them to find out a bit about the film etc but you can't do that, so if you need to read up about it you can just search the internet, they give you a little case with just the DVD in, which i guess also saves on P&P for them.

I have only ever had 1 problem with screenselect, i recieved a DVD a couple of weeks ago and it was cracked on the one side, for the middle out, this i came in the little case, but the case wasn't damaged at all, so i can only assume that the 'packers' missed this which they shouldn't really.

The prices are as follows:
1 disc at a time - unlimited DVD rentals - £9.99/mth
2 discs at a time - unlimited DVD rentals - £12.49/mth
3 discs at a time - unlimited DVD rentals - £14.99/mth

As mentioned i am with the £9.99 plan, this has been fine, i only need 1 DVD at a time. They have a good offer on at the moment, you get 5 free DVD rental's (OR 21days which ever is first - They don't state this as your joining up), this is a very good offer and you can even quit before the free trial ends and NOT PAY ANYTHING! But i assume that you will not be able to have the trial again if you try and sign up again and it will probably charge you, so be careful.

The way you choose your DVD's- You get a 'selection' list when you put in 10 (min) DVD's that you would like to rent, giving them a rating of: priority 1 - I would like these titles delivered as soon as possible, priority 2 - Please deliver these titles as they become available and priority 3 - I don't mind when you send out these titles. Putting a DVD on priority 1 obviously will mean you recieved it before the other ones on your list. A good thing to have.

Overall i think that screenselect is a very good service, which is quick and easy to use. Well worth the money.

Summary: screenselect is a very good service, which is quick and easy to use. Well worth the money.
