Richard is trying out Peerflix, which is essentially a (nearly) free floating library of DVDs. He explains the system (which sounds slightly complicated) and does the math:

My theory is that if you can send out 10 DVDs, then you’re likely to have a Peerbux balance of 20-30 which can be good for 10-15 DVDs, and then you’ll only have to pay the brokerage fee of $0.99 per DVD you order. Well, you also have to pay postage on anything you send out, but that’s about 50 cents per disc, as you only send the discs, and not the boxes.

He’s also got some justifiable complaints about annoying search results and user interface issues.
