Every single DVD retailer these days seems to have it's own pricing policy on individual titles. Some will use individual titles as a loss leader while some will buy large amounts of stock on a good selling title when it hits the right price. Yet quite often, if you just do a straight order on a specific title it will come back to you at the full list price. It makes far more sense to see who is selling it the cheapest at any given time without having to do all the leg work. Watchily compares the price and availability ... Read more

Why would you need to shorten your URL I ask myself? Mine is pretty short anyway. But shortening one's URL is not about most of us. Where it is of most benefit is with something like a particular forum or if you share a link on Facebook or Twitter. Kly.so is a URL Shortening Service that not only does the shortening work for you but also pays you for the privilege. The only thing that they ask is to put a small advert on your link (which can be skipped). Read more

Mubi is a film site that used to be known as The Auteurs but I don't think many people really know what an auteur is because there aren't many around these days. Basically, a director would be considered an auteur if he or she could translate their personal creative vision into a filmic concept. So now you see why there aren't many auteurs around these days - Hollywood isn't so keen on the creative director these days. So...getting back to Mubi...it's an online cinema and community for people who love film. It's a place to watch, discuss and read all ... Read more

This is a site that promises much in the way of earning cash but it’s probably a good idea to consider how you make it before you start staging funny situations and capturing them on your video. And unless you reside in the US, Canada, Australia, UK and other EU countries you’ll not be able to take part anyway but I can’t imagine too many people crying over that to be honest. Read more
