Amazon.com
.
You can not escape Amazon, it is everywhere and if you are looking for just about any Item from Books, Clothe, TV's to Video and Make-up you have a 90% chance Amazon.com has it in stock. Even hard to find Items can be found on this amazing Website, with its own core stores and thousands of Affiliated Sellers.
All that should not be a surprise to you, after all Amazon.com has been around since 1996 and their reputation has grown ever since then.
Amazon.com has now added a new feature in there mission to make their Online Stores bigger and better.
Introducing: Amazon Unbox. No, this is not a spelling mistake, it is called Amazon Unbox and is the Source for an online Video Rental in a downloadable Version from a Trusted Company. You can rent some of today's hottest Video Titles. New Releases are available to you at the touch of a finger on your keyboard.
You can Purchase the Videos straight out via Download from them or Rent them. It is like a downloadable version of Blockbusters. Currently they claim over 2.500 Titles available as Rentals and over 4,300 for Purchase Options and the number is growing daily.
So who do I get started? First you really should take a look at all the available titles. Rentals start as low as 99 cents and up. For a full list of the current Rentals or Purchase Options you can visit Unbox. Once you are convinced that they have the full line of Videos you are looking for go on and install the Unbox Video Player required to play the movies.
If you are not sure of what Video's you would like to watch they even offer you a Preview Video Player on top of the Unbox Pages.
How Do I Install The Unbox Video Player?
This is a PC Bases system and you will need to have Windows XP installed on your computer.
Here are the System Requirements as listed on their Website: Microsoft Windows XP or Vista (32-bit versions) , Windows Media Player 9.0 or higher, 1.5 GHz processor & 512 MB RAM, Broadband connection.
The Download Page has full download instructions posted; they are extremely easy to follow and are clearly marked in their step by step way.
Their Player allows you to download and watch their DVD Quality movies, re-download your previously purchased movies from them and even transfer the movie to portable devices. What more could you ask for.
Great, what next? Sign up for an account if you don't already have one by now. Their rentals work on a 1-click system which means you pick the movie you want to rent, click on rental and you are ready to download. It is that simple. So make sure you have the popcorn, pop and comfy chair ready. Once you press play you have 24hrs before the movie expires and you can store it unplayed for up to 30days on your PC.
Another Great Feature!
You can even use Remote Load to send your video to any of your registered PCs. Once you are signed-in with your Amazon.com account and as long as you have already installed the Unbox video player, you will be able to select a Remote Load PC right below the "Buy It Now..." box. It doesn't get anymore convenient then that.
Wait there is more! I always wanted to do that. All joking aside, if you can connect your TV to your PC Tower you can even watch the Movies on your TV. If you are a TiVO Subscriber and own a compatible DVR you are ready to go. If you take a look at their help section it explains it even further.
