Postal DVD service recommendation
Discussion
I have used both Blockbuster and Sainsburys. They were very similar and both had turnaround times of about 4-5 days from me posting a DVD back and a new one arriving. The reason I cancelled them on each occasion was that I rarely got the films I really wanted at the top of my list - perhaps I should have not put so many on there, but it was sods law that from a list of 50 films I wanted to see, 15 of which were so so, I would always get the so so ones!
IMO its worth doing for a few months to rattle through some decent titles, but then cancel, wait another few months for good releases to build up and then sign up with a different one that offers a free trial period.

Aside from actually wanting to communicate with a person, and failing miserably, I have found the Lovefilm service to be excellent. DVDs are turned around within 48hrs, and they seem to be on top of my rental queue. Might agree about the on and off periods to allow a decent watchable stack to build up, but as I rarely watch em immediately ( 
), its not a huge issue.

I had previously been with Tesco's similar service, but the service seemed to be getting slower and slower, presumably as more people joined.
