Default Swap DVD's for a Buck

Quote:
The idea is simple: You sign up at the website, list the DVDs you own and DVDs you want. When another Peerflix member requests your movie, an automated e-mail alerts you and you send the person the film through the mail. Likewise, when you request a movie, another member is alerted, and you should have it in your hands days later. You pay $1 (plus postage) for every exchange. Unlike the online DVD rental service Netflix, there's no central DVD warehouse -- the movies come directly from other film fans.

Peerflix has more than 30,000 DVDs in circulation, up from about 5,000 in February, according to the company. But the company will not disclose how many people have signed up for the service.

Pfft! Only 30K DVDs? Amateurs....

LOL!

Just kidding!

Anyway, my collection is going to top 500 soon as I just scored some good DVDs at Wally World this morning. For $4.88 apiece, I got the following...

Rush Hour
Rush Hour II
The Negotiator (Kevin and Samuel)
Eraser (Arnold and Vanessa)
Under Seige

I almost regret the last one until the birthday cake scene. That makes it worth the $4.88 in my book.

I lost count on how many DVDs I have, but I sure as heck would not pay to send my DVDs to someone else, let it get all scratched up, and then sent back..f* that..good idea though..
