Hi,

Does anyone have any experience with them?

Is there selection any good?

I'm thinking of getting them and I am just looking for any feedback on it.

Thanks.

    You get a free month's no obligation trial so you can suck it and see whether it's for you.

    Good but many films are older than on Lovefilm. Got free trial of both, go via Topcashback and get cashback and a free trial!

    Most Films are really old. Only advantage is you get cashbask thru quidco :beer:

    ..... go via Topcashback and get cashback and a free trial!

    To get cashback you must also become a paying member (ie you cannot just have a free trial and get cashback)

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Just to add, I did get trials of both lovefilm and netflix. I kept netflix and canceled lovefilm. Still received cashback from the lovefilm trial. I beleive the rules were to watch 5 hours of streaming or discs to receive cashback.
    So you do get cashback even if you cancel, and its easy to cancel.
    Hopeful optimistic.

    I quite like Netflix, it's not bang up to date with new releases but there are tons of tv series and older films. Lots and lots of anime and kids stuff too,and it's very easy to use and streams really well through our x box, a lot of things have subtitles available too if needed which I found was an issue with Lovefilm online, but yes grab a free trial and give it a go :)

    Only found one film I wanted to watch- streaming was a bit wonky on TiVo too.
