The Network DVD and Blu-ray Release Thread

It is annoying though. I feel your pain.

Either they've lowered the free postage weight (doesn't go by price) or Thriler must have new heavier packaging. As i mentioned it is a meaty affair.

I'm just pleased i bought Tales of the Unexpected back then as well or that would get a postage charge.

A one off.

It's not something i've ever paid though.

Does it just show the film or specific release?

Specific release - it's user built but managed by filmaf site admins so there may be some titles missing here and there. People even upload reversible artwork (so you can choose your cover) plus store exclusives, special editions etc.

As an example, the link to my DVD collection is in my signature.

I think my Tales of the Unexpected attracted a postage charge when I purchased it a couple of years ago. Armchair Thriller too.

I'm not trying to sound dumb here (no need to try, i hear you say) but do you just type in a film title and a bunch of different releases appear so you click on the one you own and it's logged?

Armchair Thriller doesn't. Neither does Tales. Just had a look.

I'm thinking there's a glitch somewhere because Tales is way heavier than Thriller and about £15 more expensive.

Pretty much, yeah. Every title has a tick box next to it so you can either type in a title on the search box and choose which one you own from the list of results and then 'move' it to whichever folder you want - you start off on the site with a default 'owned' 'wish-list' and a couple of others but you can make more (I've created a separate owned list for Blu-ray plus 3 wish-lists: UK BD, Other Region BD and DVD). You can select/move multiple titles too, so say you could search 'Shameless' for instance on the distributor drop down and add all the Shameless releases you own in one go rather than searching for each title individually.

Perhaps because I was a silly boy and ordered them both together...
