Guide to Australian Online DVD Rental

= Value
= Design
= Service

Value Rating: Rates the prices at all disc rental levels and assesses what you actually get for your money.

Design Rating: Includes website/interface--essentially ease of use. There are some really aggravating sites out there...

Service Rating: Customer service--including DVD turnaround times--this is the least "scientific" of our ratings, relying on reports we've gathered from across the net.

Titles: Total number of available DVD film titles, followed by Blu-Ray disc titles. Don't sign up on this criterion alone; a company with just 10,000 films will likely have most everything you'll ever want.

Shipping Locations: Lists where the company's distribution centers are--will affect mailing time.

Free Trial: These vary widely; look closely at the details of each site if you're pursuing a free trial, as many have strict cancellation requirements. If you're very cheeky, you can "free trial hop" them all for free for a couple months

Prices: In Australian dollars per month for standard, unlimited 1 to 5 disc at-a-time subscriptions, unless otherwise specified. See the company reviews for more details, special offers, etc.
