Best 'pay for' DVD / Movie download site

BoxCleva

Hi Folks,
I want some advice as to what site you would recommend for DVD/Movie downloads. I'm not interested in p2p illegal downloads, so the site has to be legit.

iTunes is an obvious suggestion, but I dislike all things apple.

I would want the option to burn what I have downloaded onto DVD should I feel the need.

So my checklist is as follows:

1. Good download speeds
2. Large database
3. Burnable downloads


Any suggestions please ?

I don't recall hearing of any that allow you to burn your movie to a DVD. And not using iTunes just because for some reason you "dislike all things Apple" is rather like cutting off your nose to spite your face. If they offer a service that is of benefit to yourself, use it. I use Microsoft products all the time.

I don't think it's allowed. DRM!

Thanks James & Bat,
I asked about the burn option as a few sites offer that as a feature. Blinkbox looks good, but I'd like to have a couple more I can use if anyone else has some more suggestions.

I live in the middle of nowhere so downloading a DVD is far easier than driving 20 miles to the nearest Blockbuster

Lovefilm delivers to your door, has excellent cs, has lots of price plans (PAYG too) and by far the largest collection of films anywhere by the looks of it.

That's fine if I don't mind waiting 2/3 days. I am already a Lovefilm member, I was wanting an online solution as it's instant (ish)

Lovefilm again:p Certain films (limited i admit) you can watch instantly for a small fee. No burning though due to drm.

One thing to think about is you internet service. If your not on an unlimited package like virgin then this option isnt viable without first upgrading your internet. Otherwise prepare for some shocking bills :eek:
