Online DVDs Take Off In The U.K. [Variety]

Nice piece on growth of Video Island by Adam Dawtrey in Variety, syndicated through Forbes.

Interesting to note that the UK market is growing faster than the US.

"From a standing start in fall 2003, online DVD rentals (where customers pay a monthly fee, order via the Web and receive their titles by mail) are on course to total 13% of all video rentals in 2005, more than doubling the 2004 figure of 6%. Figures come from Screen Digest."
