LoveFilm runs a good service, been with them for a year or so. I would recommend you have a few high priorities at any time otherwise they will just randomly pick from the mediums and on one occassion they sent me the sequel to a game that was on my list which was great, I love playing my games in reverse order. But other than that little hic-cup I've been happy with them.

There is a priority thing on LoveFilm. But stuck a load of stuff in there.
The best thing for me where it will actually SAVE me money, is in getting boxsets. I normaly buy House, Heroes etc and hey like £20 a hit and you never watch em again.
Now i can get them on Blu-Ray and it don't cost as much. Got True Blood coming, thats meant to be very good!
Thanks for your help.

Nah, there isn't much a wait, generally, I find with most rental sites it's a 2 day changeover. 1 day for it to get to them, and 1 day to get back (dependant mainly on Royal Mail)
The priority thing is that on Boomerang it's a list, so on mine I have a 1st priority, and a 67th priority (yeah, I have a decent sized list at the moment) so I feel like what I want is fairly easily and simply defined. Whereas it seemed just "High, Medium, Low" on LoveFilm, and I didn't feel as in control of what I was getting with that system. But since you're doing 3 discs, you probably won't have that problem :)
I *think* (not entirely sure, didn't play around too much when I had it) there's an option on LoveFilm to make lists and say that I want 1 disc from this list at all times, so if you want to ensure you have games, try and do that.

Went BIG - £18 a month on Love Film. I will easily make my money on that with Blu-Ray and Games lol.
Now the fun begins!!

So is there much of a wait if you want a game or DVD with them? What is the priority thing all about??
These are the things that might put me off and make me go to boomerang (swapgame has good reviews aswell)

Well, I can't think of any particular reason why you shouldn't. As I said, if the package gives you what you want, then there's no reason why you shouldn't try it. Besides, if you're ever unsatisfied with it, it's not as if you can't cancel and change over to something else.
As my own personal experience with LoveFilm, my extended 90 day free-trial (extended from 90 days to like 114 days due to the postal strike, which is nice) is about to expire, but I don't think that I used the service enough to justify paying for it. I didn't particularly like the way of prioritising in LoveFilm, didn't work very well for me. But the sending out of DVDs and stuff seemed reliable enough, not as bad as people reported to me before I started the trial.

Going with LoveFilm, i think i would really get use from the DVDs and Blu Ray along with games. So i will probably go for the 2 discs at a time, unlimited a month! £15 a month, thats pretty good. But for an extra £3 i could have another disc lol. Thats loads of games and Blu Rays i could go through.
Any thoughts on this people, reasons why i shouldnt??

Good morning everyone! I'm new here and just wanted to say how pleasantly surprised I am at the great support and help I have received since trying to get my website up and running.
I am thrilled with the results and just hope you all agree with me that the support service for Freeola is one of the best I've come across.

Thats what i was looking at, think it would be £14 a month and thats unlimited rentals, 2 discs at a time with LoveFilm.
But if the games take ages to turn up, that would suck, but being able to get DVD's and Blu-Ray along with games would be very handy!
