INETFLIX REVEALS TOP DVD'S FOR DEC 2001

[ 8 January 2002 ]

As ringing bells and winter's chill drifted through the air last month, movie lovers escaped the cold to watch their favorite flicks. Fortunately, wading through foul weather and traffic to rent a video was not a problem for members of Netflix, the world's largest online DVD rental source.

Instead, they remained in the warmth of their homes as their desired DVDs were sent right to their doorstep. During the holidays, movie lovers turned to dinosaurs, apes and animated ogres to get their film fix.

For 20 bucks a month, Netflix offers an easy and affordable way to keep the winter blues at bay. Hot chocolate in hand, Netflix customers simply go online to rent as many movies as they want from a selection of nearly 11,000 titles, checking out three at a time. They can keep the DVDs for as long as they like, and there are no late fees and no due dates.

All movies are delivered free-of-charge by U.S. mail right to customers' homes, and when they are finished, they can return the movies in postage-paid envelopes.
