- raj3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1whitesanjuro, can you give me the name of the "wanna-be paypal-esque peer lending site"? google came up with nothing from those terms...
- whitesanjuro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0fear? wtf?! i would say more like boredom. much like that new wanna-be paypal-esque peer lending site, i think its a great idea that will sadly never catch on.
- tfratzke, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What's bizarre about this is the ad page "looks" like Netflix. Even down to some of the icons. Very weird. I agree with jmccorm, way to scary for me!
- jmccorm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This scares the me.
- chinolofus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0^^how would you know what most people rent? i use netflix and love it...you cant even compare it to blockbusters crappy selection (instore..im sure their online deal has a good selection too)
- cneil, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The trial search doesn't seem to work. I typed in Spiderman and nothing came up.
- gunnmjk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm already a member of peerflix.com. the fact that there is an alternative to peerflix now significantly lowers my abilitity to find somebody to trade my dvd with.
- jingle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I like the idea behind this-and better than peerflix. With no want lists and no match making, you can simply order what you see. Start with five movies you're sick of and keep trading forever. Not everyone has the money to pay a monthly fee and my experience with Netflix is that most people rent only 4 or 5 a month-which costs as much as going to Blockbuster store!
- VladDrac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is crap. I've been using Netflix for about a year and a half. With their 8 movies at a time plan, I've been getting about 15 movies a week. That's about 65 cents a movie.
With Cinecopia I'd be forced to go out and buy a bunch of movies so I'd have something to trade. I'd also have to live with the fact that I'd NEVER see them again. I'd have to pay 10 bucks a year. PLUS, I'd have to pay the buck for each movie I got.
Exactly how is Cinecopia a value?! It's a complete rip-off! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0sounds like bs, but if people use it, I guess it works. But there is one way to get it cheaper......torrents
- Scott.Lyles, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0An initial $9.99 registration fee, then yearly $9.99 membership. Okay not as great a deal as first thought... but could someone explain the math of this to me . "Cinecopia charges $0.99 per DVD requested (in-trade). For convenience we ask that you pre-pay for groups of 5 trades at $2.97."
