So you know you can rent movies in a brick and mortar store like Blockbuster, Movie Gallery or Hollywood video. Did you also know that you can rent them online and stream them directly to your computer or television? You most certainly can and we will discuss some of the advantages to that here today.
With brick and mortar renting, first of all you have to find a movie rental store close to your home and then you have to drive to this place, and search for movies in different racks and finally when you find the movie of your choice you have to stand in the line to rent your movie. Entire process can take upto 30-45 minutes if movie store is close to your home. Again you have to make sure that you return the movie within required time frame and that too before the store closes down. If you are late by a day you incur a significant late fees, I remembered paying 16 dollars late fees for returning movie about 4 days late.
This is your classic movie rental scenario dealing with brick and mortar rental store, now lets see the modern day online rental scenario.
