I am a big movie buff & I just became
a member of this DVD rental company called Seventymm. This seems to be a good concept here in Bangalore where you have the local CD
shopwallah who has all pirated stuff. Besides, it also saves me time and energy
of going to a local shop and trying to hunt for a particular movie. At least
here I can just browse through their website and order for my copy. What I found
interesting with Seventymm is that they seem to be clued in about movies and
differentiate it according to genre. This makes life easier for people like me
who has absolutely no patience to go through the rows and rows of movies stacked
up in a library.
I guess they’ve clinched my membership for a long time to come
since they’ve got a special section called World Cinema and though the
collection is small, it’s got all the movies that I want to watch by the greats
like Akira Kurosawa. The prints seem to be good so far. Will have to wait and
see if they maintain the quality through out. As of now the customer service is
also pretty good, only that sometimes I don’t get it in the order of selection.
With too many members, it’s understandable I suppose. But I do wish I could get
it in the order of my wish list. Anyways, unlike the local CD shop copies I get
to see a clear print and also the end of the movie.
