As they are all the same:

"As a leading wholesale distributor, supplying approximately one-quarter of the UK’s home entertainment products, Entertainment UK was quick to see the opportunities that this new retail channel could bring to its business. In 1999, it established Entertainment UK Direct (EUK Direct) as its home delivery arm to provide order fulfilment for many familiar online brands, which now include Virgin’s V.Shop, Woolworths, and Tesco.com. EUK Direct is known as a ‘blind supplier’ which means that as far as consumers are concerned, the entire process, from placing the order online to the arrival of the goods, is handled within the brand of the Web site they are buying from. As EUK Direct is sent the orders it initiates the process of picking, packing, and despatching of items from its warehouse. "

I will be most unhappy if anyone does get one from tesco's!! >:( >:(

History


Entertainment UK is the UK's largest wholesale distributor of home entertainment products, supplying many of Britain's best known retailers with nearly a quarter of the UK music and video industry's entire output. With a unique ability to unite the interests of suppliers and retailers, it makes it attractive, simple and profitable for them to do business together.

Founded in 1966 as Record Merchandisers Limited, the company achieved rapid growth to become the largest wholesale distributor in the UK.

Following Record Merchandisers' Limited rebirth as Entertainment UK in 1988, the company has concentrated on building the systems to become entirely responsive to the commercial and operational needs of individual customers and suppliers.

Entertainment UK's clients include Tesco, Woolworths, WHSmith, MVC, Safeway, Comet and Waitrose.

Entertainment UK invests substantially in both technology and staff development, reflecting a firm commitment to growth through quality and efficiency. The result is a dynamic blend of services, adding value for customers and suppliers alike.

Entertainment UK continues to grow and last year its turnover was over £1 billion.
