As many of you may know (or if you don't manage torrents), it can be very hard to obtain DVD's. I haven't got a huge collection, i'm simply going to promote a little idea here for those of you who also haven't got huge collections. My idea is that those of us with limited collections (maybe 25 DVD's or less?) can start are own little trading link. You post what you have and what you'd like and see what another user has and arrange a trade. If we can get enough of us to hop on board we can all expand our collections pretty rapidly I think.

Well let me know if your interested first off and then we can take it from there and establish some rules and stuff.

Cheers for reading

thats all you' need. I've never bothered downloading the Adelaide DVD which I think you have so theres a trade right away.

It was nothing fantastic, but still important to me. Is there anything you'd want?

I'm interested in getting into it but have nothing to trade

Any tips on how I can get a collection started? (Torrents don't work for me)

Blanks and postage are the way to go. For me, I'd accept MP3 discs. And that's how I got started.

have you tried iwillfollowu2.com. You can download DVD's there just with a few links. Very easy. Just don't cross Bonofan or say anything negative about his site
