    Flexplay is a new kind of DVD that offers the watch-anytime, take-anywhere convenience of a DVD you buy, at a price comparable to a DVD rental--without the hassles of returns or late fees. Flexplay DVDs work in all standard DVD players, with the same picture quality, surround sound, and other features of a regular DVD. There is no special setup or configuration required! Flexplay DVDs are "activated" when you open the vacuum-sealed package (inside the yellow-topped Flexplay sleeve). Once the package is opened, you have 48 hours to watch your DVD--as many times as you choose! Unopened Flexplay DVDs stay fresh in the package for about a year. So you decide when to watch.


    First DVD announced on amazon.com for $4.99

  2. Pfft. I'll never buy a Flexplay movie.

    Have you read some of the naive reviews?

    Sounds like a Flexplay employee.

    Flexplay smells like Divx to me...

    Yup.
    But the world is full of idiots, Im sure plenty of them will buy it. They bought Divx before, they'll buy 'flexcrap' as well.

    This may catch on only if it is significantly cheaper than rental, not equal, not close to, but *much* cheaper than renting out same movie.

    Same price as rental? I can rent 3 movies for 3 days for less that the price posted. Wonder who starts a business like that, maybe they are the buyers of Divx who want to take revenge... hahaha :P
