Question about mail order dvd rental places.

We are thinking of joining one of the Netflix-like services in Australia.

Do any of you subscribe to such a service? How do you find the service? Is it worth it?

Basically, I have a lot of films I want to watch, but I don't always have time to watch them within the time that the DVD store lends them for. I need a bit more flexibility. I tend to buy things for this reason. So, in an effort to curb my DVD habit, I'm looking at joining such a service. Then I can work out if I actually like the film enough to buy it.

Thanks very much for that. I've passed it on to ferkster and we'll see what we can come up with.

You're in with a good chance, I reckon. Have you written radio plays before? Do you think it's a very different thing to the other kind?

They've written radio plays before, and they got produced. I can recite whole sections....

I've got a good feeling about this...

We actually won the FBI Live Radio Play competition twice in a row (our plays were performed live in the Sydney Opera House Drama Studio and broadcast by FBi - a Sydney community radio station.)

We've wanted to get back into radio - we have a serial we've been sitting on for ages. Not really adaptable to a one hour play format, but I'm sure we'll come up with something.
