Dear Hollywood Studios: Let My Video Go


It's early December, and you've been watching DVDs of The Wire, HBO's addictive crime drama, for four hours. Now it's past midnight, and you've just finished season three. You're hooked and ready for more, but season four is nowhere to be found. The DVD set was recently released, but neither Barnes & Noble nor the local video store has it yet, and anyway, they're closed. Netflix offers it, but that would mean a three-day wait for the DVDs to come by mail. Amazon Unbox? iTunes? Netflix Watch Instantly? Not available. Only one place will deliver The Wire right now: BitTorrent.

More.
NVDL: I used to use BitTorrent in Broadband heaven - South Korea. Unfortunately I have been suffering withdrawl since my boeing touched down on South African soil...

www.cd-wow.com (Free Worldwide Delivery but not sure if you need a UK bank card) and/or www.play.com. Don't know if they deliver internationally but they usually have almost anything you are looking for at a reasonable price!
