Facts and FAQ's
1. Why can't I obtain the title I require? I know it was released on DVD.

DVDs have a short shelf life. Once High Street sales diminish, titles are withdrawn from sale without notice.

When possible we endeavour to provide a 'cushion' by obtaining stocks of popular titles when we know a problem is looming.
As we often say 'delay in ordering = disappointment'.

2. Why can't I obtain the title I require? It's on the syllabus.

Many films and broadcasts are unfortunately never released on DVD. This can be because of costs or royalty problems.

3. What is the position on copyright ?

DVDs may be used in the classroom, in connection with a course of study ^[1], or by individuals for home use. They may not be duplicated, altered, or shown for social purposes in schools/colleges. No charges may be made for admission to a viewing.

In twenty years we have never encountered a single problem in respect of any title supplied.

NOTE: Beware of fakes
We do caution you against buying fakes and poor pirated copies at markets or car boot sales. We also caution against 'hard to find', supposedly new DVDs which you may find on auction sites, and from private sellers. Our experience is that 95% of these are illegal, fake copies.

For safety, purchase your DVDs from a reputable supplier, such as Trumedia.

4. Should we invest in DVD?

We recommend that customers now invest in DVD players.  The VHS video format should now be considered obsolete.
