Series One is available to buy or rent on DVD now, not sure about Blockbuster, but you could try http://www.dvdsontap.com/

Series 2 is looking good, and with the second episode on it's way (figners crossed) I am happy

I would like to make the episode available to all and sundry, but it would be (a) illegal, and (b) difficult to organise, given that the file is over 500Mb is size!

If anyone wants has a broadband connection and uses Kazaa - that's how I found it, if you want more details drop me a mail.

Hold on a sec, posted that before looking at www.dvdsontap.com as I use movietrak now.

Scoob_dood - have you used them, what are they like?

I rent several DVDs a month from movietrak (who have always been excellent, BUT, they charge 3.50 a DVD, and you get the disc for 7 days).

dvdsontap appear to claim, for 'from 7.99 a month' that you can rent unlimited DVDs in the month, and keep them as long as you like?

Where's the catch? I notice you have to sign up to a free trial period, give credit card details which you can then cancel . I can't find the small print to read before signing up?

Experiences anyone?


Ta,





Alex

Just watched the first episode of the second series - awesome!

Wasn't too sure whether it would hold the same suspense as the first series, but after watching the first hour - I have to say I'm hooked already! It has the same flaws as the first series (so far), a bit cheesy in places, but still great viewing

Anyone else seen it ? I am now hunting the second episode which just aired ... if anyone has it please let me know!

Cheers,

Jon

Best thing about 24 series 2 was that Jack Bauer's wife died in the first series

God she was annoying !

with regards to www.DVDsOnTap.com ...

Been using them for a while, and I pay £9.99/month and rent on average 4 per month (i.e. 2.50/rental) for that you get free return postage envelope, and one film per rental.

Basically you maintain a list on their website, and they post you the films one at a time, based on this list, the next film being sent when they receive your film back.

The only problems I have come across, are the odd disc being a little scratched (causing some playback problems) - but I emailed them about this and got 2 weeks credited to my account!

Turnaround is good, and to be honest, if you are wanting to watch a lot of films, you could easily get 2 films a week in, which is pretty good value!

The free trial is good, and I have had no major problems ... so far
