Well Sony just lost a Video Store Consumer

Yep, I rented Cloverfield (HD Version) off of the Playstation Video Store for 6 bucks...well I watched it Thursday night, so my Dad asked me about it and wanted to watch it sooooo I got the PS3 set up in the living room so that he could watch it....

Anyways I go to play it and I can't because time has expired. TIME HAS EXPIRED?! I watched the freakin thing one time and only had it for about a day and a half, come to find out once you playback the movie you only have 24 hours worth of access afterwards....

So essentially I'm paying 6 dollars for a one night rental...BULL****! That's it I'm done with the PS Video Store until they fix that crap, total ripoff.

Do you not pay attention to the terms and conditions before you purchase/agree to something? The joke's on you, man.

How much are 360 downloads? I've never really paid attention, because it's in internet-points-money. It always seemed reasonable to me though, whenever i've used it in the past. Also, i'm fairly sure you have more than 24 hours to watch a movie. I think it's 24 hours once you start watching it.

Same as PS video store, $5 - 7

Though I think some movies are cheaper on the PSV store.

Hey you live and you learn, Sony ripped me 6 bucks on their wackass Video Store and that's all they'll get from me. Bastards.

Eh, I rented one movie from the PSN store. Death At A Funeral. I think I watched it twice. 24 hours was really all I needed with it.

Do yourself a favour and find a blockbuster. If your town don't have a blockbuster then I feel sad for you :cry:

Wrong. Sony didn't "rip" you in any way, shape, or form. You willingly GAVE them your money. If you aren't happy with the circumstances of the transaction, that's on you. You should pay more attention next time. Don't come on here looking for sympathy when you're the one at fault.

Does the PSN store have any movies which the 360 one doesnt have? I'd go check it out but i cant be bothered going to turn it on. :PNinja-Hippo

Fair enough but no matter how you look at it...

1 Movie for 1 night for 6 bucks = Ripoff

I'll stick with Hollywood videos or Blockbuster, thank you very much.

W1NGMAN-

I think you guys are a bit dellusional.

Unless it's a really old film, I wouldnt expect more than a "rent" for only 6 bucks.

When was the last time any of you saw a film on Bluray for 6$? That just doesnt exist.

I want to know where my money's going

no its not LOL do YOU read every single term blah blah...NO and dont say you do...W1NGMAN, sorry bro, but Sony IS the WORST company on the planet. They care NOTHING about thier customers(cows :P) and care NOTHING about America. I dont blame you at all for being upset bro.jazreal

The terms are very clearly laid out, and are the pretty much the same as MS's on rentals. Only difference is Sony allows you to buy some movies as well.

I think every company in existence cares about their customers enough to keep said customers happy enough to continue buying that company's products.

Yeah, it should be more than 24 hours. Otherwise getting a blu-ray movie from blockbuster/netflix is more appealing. Or at least lower the price.munu9

This is why the 360/Netflix deal is so cool. Netflix is already amazing, but add to that the ability to stream in movies for those moments when you just need something suddenly and you have a win.

I will stick to renting through my cable company. It is only for 24 hours also, but for half the price.Bubblehash

W1NGMAN-

Although that sucks, that's how it is on both ps3 and 360 (wow, something in common! i know!) but i mean there is no real good reason to rent from there considering the same price you get a dvd (or bluray) copy and can watch it as much as you want. I think they should consider changing the terms so you rent it for 1 week, and can have it for a week then it expires. That way it more resembles real rental stores more accurately. It's not like they need it back to rent out elsewhere, makes no sense eh?

Microsoft's Rental Service on 360 does the same thing. :roll: Wow, the bias is thick with this one.

It's basically the same thing when you rent a new release from a store. Might as well buy the thing (in general I mean, Cloverfield sucks and I'm sorry I bought it!)Chutebox

cloverfield was AWESOME. you have no imagination.

anyway, back on topic. i thought that was how online rentals worked. whether through comcast, ps, xbox, whatever. you only get to keep them for about 24 hours.

Lmao yea, it's pretty damn thick.

Sigh.....what can you do.

Here is a tip...

Get Netflix. For the price of 3 PSN rentals you can have 2 movies out at a time (you can get 16 movies per month if you watch and return them the same day they arrive) and unlimited instant viewing. Not to mention 360 will be able to play instant movies in the fall.

A standard TV rental is around $3

It's $4.50 to rent something in HD.

It's about the same as a rental store, except for the 24 hour thing.... considering you can't take the DvD over to your friend's house though, I admit that time should be a lot longer.

Truth_Hurts_U

Bingo and they have BLU-RAY movies as well

$6 for rental. Is that not normal? I think we pay about $10 at blockbuster in Denmark.

Atleast you have access to the video store unlike us Europeans -.-

omg really? is there any other rental place that has unlimited rentals like BB there?

Thats not too bad, its the same as a rental place.

You should have booked it for more than one day, can you do that? (dont have it in the uk yet)
