There is a Blu-Ray Discs & PS3 Games rental library in Gurgaon that opened seven months ago and they have approx. 350 movies on Blu-Ray and approx. 100 PS3 games for rent.

The 'Moviemart' collection of BDs is not only very small, but it is also very outdated, with mostly catalog titles only. Their addition of new movies is limited to only those that our released in India, which by the way is not even 50% of the films released by Hollywood. Also, they will never carry any BD titles that have any scenes cut by Indian censors, since BDs are not manufactured specifically for the Indian market. Bottom line is, that not only does YEN Blu-ray library have a better collection, but they also have, much more flexible price plans, that are substantially cheaper, specially for those who watch a lot of movies. But I guess, whatever rocks your boat. If Moviemart fills your needs, then that's all that matters.

Thanks for info. I wont mind joining them once I am through with these 24 and I am pretty fast. Also do they cover complete NCR...coz I am in Janakpuri. Secondly do they keep all region free disks ?

Also since you are my neighbour could you pls help me buying another Blu player which is either region free or region B ? Thanks a ton

Obviously you did not read my post too carefully, because my post has the complete details of the BD collection of 'ZEN library', including how many BDs are region free. By the way, 'Region A/B/C' means 'Region Free'. I am not sure if they cover 'Janakpuri' but it would not hurt to ask. They could probably owrk out some kind of courier deal for you.

India is 'Region C', so why would you want a 'Region B' player? If anything, you should be looking to get a 'Region A' player since if you notice there are more 'Region A' BDs than 'Region C' BDs. I can help you in getting a 'Region A' player, in case you are interested in one.

I've been renting blu's from them for 2 months now. Their service is very good. Same day delivery (for Gurgaon residents anyway..no idea about Del). New BD's released in America reach here after a month or 2 (usually). They still haven't got some, like LOTR or Sherlock Holmes, and from what they told me, they aren't planning on getting LOTR. So, they'll get a lot of new blu's, but not all.

All in all, def. worth it.

@sanjay

Do you live in Gurgaon ?

Actually, the delay in getting titles is only a recent problem and is due to several unfortunate circumstances, including the 'volcanic ash' problem. Otherwise, normally there is only a few weeks delay from the US release.

They have 'Sherlock Holmes' now, along with a bunch of new releases. You should be getting an updated list anytime now.

As for 'LOTR', they will definately be getting it. They are just waiting for 'BIG HV' to release it in the Indian market. Wish 'BIG HV' was more pro-active in releasing titles in India.

Buying 'ALL' catalog title releases is just not economically viable for them. Even the very major titles have only a very limited appeal amongst members. Thus, prudent business reasons require them to be selective in buying catalog titles on Blu-ray.
