Review: iTunes 99p Rental – The Terminator
Every week Apple offer a film for rental at a discounted price of 99p on iTunes. For several weeks, the selections were pretty poor. Then last week saw a quality jump, with Matthew Vaughn’s Layer Cake.
Would this week continue the improvement? The answer would be a resounding yes, as to coincide with the DVD release [...]
Review: iTunes 99p Rental – Layer Cake
The iTunes 99p rental. For many weeks now the bane of my existence, where once i looked with anticipation to discover what had been chosen, i now look with dread. Fatal Instinct, Surfer Dude, Starter For 10, just some of the rejects i’ve been subjected to.
Imagine my surprise, then, when i found that this week’s [...]
Review: iTunes 99p Rental – Fatal Instinct
Last week, presumably due to a technical error, there was no 99p rental on iTunes. Now i’ll be honest, based on the suspect selections of recent weeks, it was nice to get a week off. I also considered the possibility that Apple had maybe decided to stop it altogether.
I thought that would be a great [...]
Competition Winner: iPod Nano
NBC Universal kindly gave us us a competition for one lucky HeyUGuys reader to win an iPod Nano. We had loads of entries but there could only be one winner.
To enter the competition, each entry had to describe what film has made them most scared and why. Reading what made you all scared gave us [...]
Review: iTunes 99p Rental – Scary Movie 3
The way we watch movies is changing. In five years time, the studios believe, all our home entertainment will be delivered digitally. Apple know this, and already have a large quantity of movies available via iTunes and Apple TV.
To encourage us to try this form of media, every week iTunes offers one movie for rental [...]
Review: iTunes 99p Rental – And Now For Something Completely Different
As well as music, iTunes does films too, to buy or rent. Rentals usually cost £2.50 to £3.50, but every week those nice chaps (or chapesses) hand select one to be available at a much lower 99p. Every week i review the selection, ‘cos quite often it can be a little obscure…
This week, to celebrate [...]
Review: iTunes 99p Rental – Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen.
The iTunes 99p rental – so good they do it every week. It’s easy, you go into the films section of iTunes, locate the movie picture that states ‘this weeks 99p rental’, point and click. It only takes 30 minutes to download on my computer, and my broadband is super-slow speed. It’s not surprising the [...]
Review: iTunes 99p Rental – Surfer, Dude
Digital copy is the future. Apple certainly think so (well, they have to). To this end, iTunes hopes to slowly introduce their consumers to the ease of movie downloads by offering a rental every week at the ridiculously cheap price of 99p. You couldn’t even buy I Know Who Killed Me on DVD for that.
As [...]
Review: iTunes 99p Rental – Starter For 10
You know the drill by now. iTunes offer a random film for cheap rental every week, I take the bullet and let you know if you’d be better off buying a can of Coke and a Twix.
I aim to raise the profile of the 99p rental, and it’s working already. Just six weeks since I [...]
