Review of Cinema Paradiso DVD Rental
WE certainly didn't see this coming! CinemaParadiso used to be a wilting flower offering a small range of mostly world-cinema titles.
65,000 movies to rent
Now, with just over 65,000 title available to rent, CinemaParadiso DVD rental is almost managing to creep up on the DVD rental juggernauts Lovefilm and Blockbuster.
You'll still find all the great world cinema titles that CinemaParadiso DVD rental was famous for but, in addition, you now have a huge choice of popular titles too.
In fact, in the coming months Cinema Paradiso DVD rental expect to have every DVD released in the UK. They perhaps haven't yet quite caught up with Lovefilm on that front, but they come close.
What's more their prices are as low - and sometimes even lower - than those two companies and their top-notch customer service easily equals them.
One of the cheapest DVD rental services
CinemaParadiso DVD Rental's pocket friendly prices (they market themselves as the "UK's cheapest online rental specialist") make them one of the best-value DVD rental services, especially when you consider the broad array of both limited and unlimited DVD rental packages.
They're still not quite as cheap as Lovefilm DVD rental or Blockbuster DVD rental, though.
There are a massive 7 different DVD rental packages available: 3 unlimited and 4 limited.
We are increasingly becoming fans of the limited package model (where you pay less per month, but can only watch a certain number of films) as it becomes obvious that unlimited rentals are - in our busy lives - quite difficult to make the most of.
CinemaParadiso's unique selling point here (which is better than the limited package offers from some other online DVD rental services) is that if you don't watch your allowed quota each month, the remainder are carried over to the next month.
That means you'll get what you paid for even if you're having a busy month or the posties go on strike again.
Cinema Paradiso also offer multiple profiles - there are now five available per household and each one can have its own queue with age restriction, if necessary, to keep younger viewers safe.
Got six friends?
CinemaParadiso DVD rental has just launched a fantastic loyalty scheme too where, if you recommend the service to 6 of your friends and they all go on to sign up, you will get free membership for as long as 6 of your friends remain CinemaParadiso DVD rental customers.
If you can't persuade six friends - or if you dont have six friends period! - you'll still receive a 1/6th discount for each friend you do manage to sign up. Read more about Cinema Paradiso's 'Friends for Films' scheme.
Another new addition to the CinemaParadiso DVD rental site is their 'shop' section where you can buy ex-rental DVD's for a fraction of the RRP price. All the DVD's for sale are 100% guaranteed quality, include DVD artwork and DVD case as well as free first class delivery from CinemaParadiso DVD rental to you. What's more, most of the titles were selling for under £3!
Small army of fans
Being a smaller company, CinemaParadiso DVD rental has built up a small army of fans who are hooked on the DVD rental company's excellent customer service.
Title turnaround is fast - and in many cases faster than its rivals. Long may it continue!
CinemaParadiso gets two-thumbs up for:
Allowing you to carry unused rentals over from month to month if you do not use up your monthly DVD rental allowance from one of CinemaParadiso's limited monthly rental packages.
