Netflix and similar businesses have controlled the market with the convenient mail system,Online is the New Way to Go for Rentals Articles but now it is beginning to appear like even this somewhat new way of dissemination might be usurped by the latest electronic advancement, online viewing.

  It just does not get any more easy than going on a website, selecting from a wide choice of films, paying with your credit or debit card, and viewing the video right there on the spot in high definition streaming video. One can watch the video on your computer screen or connect a TV into the laptop for a bigger picture.

  As of right now, web cable bandwidths vary, but as they grow quicker there is no reason why online viewing should not become the ultimate answer for movie rentals. The next step will be an addition to this method, companies can make it convenient for customers to just purchase these videos and either hold them on their computer drives or transfer them onto a DVD in high quality to add to their disc collection. While this process is present already, it has not been sufficiently simplified for the people. However, we have witnessed it happen with MP3s, and videos are the next logical step.

  It pains me to see the mom and pop rental stores shut their doors, and even the multibillion dollar corporate chains, but I should admit that I completely like the instant gratification internet delivery provides.
