Editor's Top 10 Buying Guide
 
LOVEFiLM image
LOVEFiLM has arguably the most comprehensive selection of DVDs in the UK and gets our No. 1 Choice Award in this category. Well organised, with an easily navigable, uncluttered layout decked out in striking black, white and red, this website oozes enthusiasm for film. It actually feels like the website exists to encourage you to watch and enjoy more...

Blockbuster image
Blockbuster's selection is huge, its service fast and professional, its coverage comprehensive. They have, after all, being doing this for a long time: the online service is just the latest outgrowth of a massive film rental empire that began over 20 years ago with a single store in Dallas renting out video tapes (remember those?) to film-hungry Texans. Now...

Tesco DVD Rental image
Tesco as a brand has always aspired to be provide good value for money on a wide range of reliable products and their DVD rental service is no exception. The website itself is clearly laid out and easily navigable, if it a little sparse and lacking in visual panache. There are the requisite reviews and top 100 lists, grouped...

Easy Cinema image
From the people who brought you EasyJet (hence all the orange) comes pay-as-you-go online DVD rental at a scandalously low price. It works like this: you purchase credits in one of three amounts on the website and redeem them when you rent DVD's. You can choose to either let the system top up your credits automatically at the same...

WHSmith DVD Rental image
Reliable, reassuring and a firmly a part of British culture for as long as your granny can remember, WHSmith has long been the BBC of the High Street. And now, with the surprisingly dynamically named "WHSmith Movies Direct" its coming through your letterbox as well. WHSmith Movies Direct (surely a name in need to a dramatic exclamation mark) offers...

Sofa Cinema image
From the people behind the Guardian newspaper and several of the UK's leading independant film and cinema companies comes one of the most popular DVD rental "communities" in Europe. So the idea is that Sofa Cinema is all about film. And indeed, its free 30 day trial is probably the longest you'll find and the packages it offers are...

Cinema Paradiso image
You don't have to be a young Italian boy learning heartwarming life lessons from the projectionist at your local cinema to nurture a love of film with Cinema Paradiso. Cleverly incorporating this motif, the website is clearly laid out and easy to use, though the front page does suffer somewhat from looking more like a pop-up ad for itself...

Odeon Direct image
Don't be put off by the large purple writing and masses of black on the front page of this website. Instead click deeper into the site and you'll find that the reviews and top 100 lists of DVDs which help you choose are just as extensive as you might expect from a major cinema chain, and very clearly and...

Hoad Films image
The website is nicely organised, well set out and easy to use. Good logo too. The only quibble is that the free trial offer referred to in the FAQ doesn't seem to be referred to or explained in any obvious or accessible place in the rest of the website. If any Hoad subscribers could tell us whether this offer...
