It sounds like you are talking about columbiahouse.com. If you are, here are the steps you take:\n\n1. go to the columbiahouse website\n2. click on the green dollar amount of your funcash (upper right corner)\n3. there will be a light green box with your funcash dollars in red - click on the link below that  -- it says "use your funcash now"\n4. go shopping and click on the green link below DVDs that you want. \n\nThey don't post the fun cash cost for each DVD and you will not get the sale price. You get charged the member price.\n\nNot all DVDs are eligible for purchase usin funcash. In that case, no green link will appear below the DVD.\n\nAfter you choose a DVD, you will go to the funcash cart where you choose you much of your funcash to use on a selection.\n\nYou can pay for the full amount of a single DVD using funcash, but they only let you apply about $10 towards boxed sets.

they are either in one of three places. \n\n1 hit menu and look for them there.\n\n2. look for an icon some where on the screen like that used for the production company an click on it.\n\nor 3. turn the disc over and see if they put it on the other side. \n\nOh yes make sure you did not buy only one disc of a two disc movie. That happens like with the Polar Express. You may be missing a disc.

(IGNORE SPELLING MISTAKES)\nEDIT: came back to give a better link for DVD FAB DECRYPTER.\n\nFirst things first. I assume you are an honest person and you only purchased that writer to make backup copies of those expensive movies you purchase, because you like to support the industry. You are a good person you will not use this knowledge to copy a dvd you rented from the video shop. That is illegal and in such a case i could get intotrouble for sharing this information with you :) lol.\n\nWhat you are about to read is the method i use it may not be the best but it affords you some control and you learn about something. this is not an all in one solution. if you want that stop reading.\n\nFirst off the basics:\nMost DVD's contain copy protections. These days they all have CSS (Content Scrambling System). They also have  region protection but that's not important. there are other protections as well but i wont name them since they are easy to beat with decrypter.\n\nThe two protections you should worry about are Sony Archos and Macrovision Ripgaurd.\n\nYou will need to run third party software in the background to bypass these protections, depending on the software you are going to use.\n\nANYDVD (it also has it's own decrypter, but i don't use it), 30 DAY TRIAL (check out clone dvd while you are there)\nhttp://www.slysoft.com/en/anydvd.html...\n\nDVD43 (DVD FOR FREE), FREE (I have not tested the new version)\nhttp://www.dvd43.com/\n\nInstall iether one of them and let them run in the background. i never let these programs start on windows startup. I ussually just open the one just before decryption. Update the one you choose regullarly as Sony and Macrovision also update thier protections. Updates might also be bet programmed to bypass difficult sectors as  the protections vary from disk to disk.\n\nokay we got that sorted. Next you need a decrypter if you want to put the files on the hard drive.\n\nDVD FAB DECRYPTER - FREE, NO SPYWARE \nI wish i could tell you to get DVD decrypter, but i see the link i ussually give no longer works. the shutdown Lightning UK ages ago so it is understanable, it was the best, DV FAB decrypter is also great, it can bypass SOny And Macrovison most of the time, but iuse third party software to help with the protection. DFD will put the DVD on your harddrive so you can use it later. you don't have to decrypt, you can skip this step if you like but it will make the next step take longer. This is also the safer option.\n\nhttp://www.dvdidle.com/free.htm\n\nIf you have decrypted the dvd, i.e. bypassed the security protections on the disk then your next step is to download shrink dvd. It will compress the video down to 4.37 GB so it can fit on a single layer DVD\n\nDVD shrink (It's free, with no bundled spyware)\nhttp://www.dvdshrink.info\nDVD shrink has a built in decrypter but if it finds a problem with the disk while decrpyting, it will waste a lot of your time as you won't know what's going on later on.\n\nIn shrink just open folder and point to whare you decrypted the dvd or open disk if you didn't\n\nIt will run through some processing. then you will see a list on the left hand side. you can use custom ratio to decrease the quality of your extra features so that your main title is better quality. you can also remove any unneeded audio streams like directors comments.\n\nLets break away for a moment. some of the dvd's you purchase come on Dual layer disks A dula layer disk can contain upto 8 GB of video. to get it down to 4.37 GB it has to re-encode the video to use a lower bitrate. Bitrate of the video and sound affects the size of the movie. the higher hte bitrate, the better the quality, and the more space that is required. Audio is never recompressed and rightly so. DTS will take the most space on a disk, but i prefer to leave it in. \n\nIn shrink it will show you what percetage artio you current title is to the original. try to keep it about 70% for the m

Yes, I use Blockbuster Online. The new program is called Total Access or something like that. I'm on the 3 out at a time plan, and with tax it's about $19 a month or so. When I'm finished watching the mailed movies, I return them in the store and when they scan the barcode off of the return envelope, that acts like a coupon for a free in-store movie. No catch. They also give you a free in-store movie coupon each week that you print out. Right now I have 6 rentals from the store, and 2 mailed movies, since I just returned a mailed movie today. I love it, although I'm finding it hard to find time to watch everything now, since I work 2 jobs! I had a free trial of Netflix last year, and they were too slow for me. Blockbuster even has faster shipping, at least in my area. Definitely go with Blockbuster Online. I've been telling everyone what a great value it's been, especially since rentals at my Blockbuster are almost $5 each! Way too much. If you do the math, I'm getting my rentals for less than a $1 each now.

Wow, that's a strange one. You say that every other DVD you own/rent works just fine in your machine, eh? Sounds like some sort of copy protection deal going on. Is this perhaps a new release DVD (probably from Sony Pictures)? If so, there may be a CSS on there that will not allow the disc to play on a PC (supposedly to eliminate piracy, but really just aggravating to those of us that are gravitating towards media centers).\n\nTry a Copy Protection removal tool (I wish I could tell you the name of one. You'll just have to google it yourself) and see if that works. If not, call the manufacturer of the disc.\n\nSorry I couldn't help any more than this but I've never encountered this problem before.....

You dont need instructions if you use www.dvd-cloner.com. Ive been using it for 2 years now. They even have a decriptor that can copy 99% of DVDs without worrying about the copyright protection. The upgrades are free and it is one simple click as long as you have a DVD copy drive. Just get that software and a pack of DVD-R and copy them. As long as you dont distribute them for sale and its for your personal use, then it is not illegal.

It is up to the store on a case by case basis but seeing as how it was a month after that the price reduction occured, I believe that they are correct here. If it was to occur only a few days after then there might be a case. There would be no way for them to know that the price would drop by such a large price. \nUsually what occurs is that the manufacturers put out a new model of the same product and the retailer reduces the cost of the old model to make way for the newer one. Otherwise, it could be up to higher management to make the decision as to pricing.\nThey wouldn't have done it to be malicious but you can ask them that the next time you want to buy something they might do you a better deal. \nIn the electrical retail market, pricing rarely stays the same for products due to the fact that the get superceded and replaced often.\nDon't blame the store but do ask them for the best price next time (use cash, folding cash not card) and ask them if this product will be replaced in the near future or if it is new to the market.\n\nSorry buddy, but you might just have to put this one down to bad timing.\n\ndenalbert suggested take it back and get a refund - after a certain length of time, this probably won't be an option as there is only a small window for refunds based on 'change of mind' Unless there is a legit problem they won't do this.\nironstu3 said - tell them it's faulty. Most places will test this before the refund is given Once again they won't just go 'oh of course we'll believe that this expensive tv is faulty just because you say it is, here is your money back'\n\nYou can try the old 'changed my mind' approach and see if it works for you. My old company wouldn't, not after a month.\n\nWhy don't you ask them to see if they have any bonuses or freebies that they can give you to sweeten the deal. DVD player etc. Or a gift voucher to be spent in store next time?\n\nGOOD LUCK!!!!!

As far as i know there only out in region 1 thats for the American market so the only way to get them is to have a region 1 or multi region dvd palyer. If u have one of these u can get them on amazon.co.uk or Play.com

I'm sorry darlin but unless you have a DVD burner your chit outta luck.  Also, copying DVD's is a little more complicated than ya might think.  Exspecially store bought.  They have a built in code in them and are a very large file download and that's if you was to be able to download them.  Sorry, good luck till ya get a DVD burner.  Come back then and I'll tell ya how ta decode and copy them.  Good luck.  Mikie.
