Pushplay: Brad Pitt, Borat and a Tsotsi delivered to your door

Posted on 30. Nov, 2006 by Jonathan Cherry in Uncategorized

Mr Video and co. should be as nervous as a clean shaven surfer in Pollsmor, because the next level of home DVD rental has finally hit South Africa.

If you’ve been wondering why a business concept like Netflix has not made its debut in this country as yet – wonder no more.

Pushplay.co.za is based on a highly successful
yet simple proposition – create a personal list from our online catalogue
of over 10,000 movie, music, TV series and documentary titles.
Your DVDs are then delivered to your post box at no extra charge.
All of this for a flat monthly fee with no penalty fines for late returns,
and no limit on the number of DVDs rented per month.

Through PushPlay,
members can browse their own virtual DVD store, rate movies, and have
DVDs recommended to them based on their personal profile and viewing
habits. [thanks Debora]

The company are offering a free ‘try before you buy’ 2-week trial [which we are personally giving a bash] for the first 1000 subscribers who sign up.
The service has really only just been launched – so its drop-box network is still very much concentrated in the Cape Town area. But word is that their orange footprint will be spreading across the entire country shortly.
