Here at LOVEFiLM HQ, we’re just getting ready for Christmas after a year of spectacular change.
This has been the year that streaming has really taken off for us. We now have thousands of films available to watch online, on internet connected TVs and of course, on the PS3.
We’ve also launched our iPhone and Nokia mobile apps, making it even easier for you to manage your account on the move.
We’ve interviewed dozens of big name stars on the website; and we’ve taken LOVEFiLM live with some fantastic events (such as the national screening and live online Q&A for Catfish last week).
And, of course, we continue to dispatch hundreds of thousands of DVDs, Blu-Rays and games every week to customers in the UK, Germany, Sweden, Denmark and Norway.
Next year looks like it’s going to be just as eventful. So, we thought it would be useful to start a blog to keep you up to date with everything that’s going on, and let you know a little more about how we work.So, what should you expect to find here? Well, this is what we hope to bring you:
* New additions to our catalogue: DVDs, Blu-Rays and games, and the latest movies available for streaming.
* Behind the scenes insights into how LOVEFiLM works, and exactly what happens when you click ‘Rent’ to a movie you want to watch..
* News of new product launches from us – whether that is changes to our website [and we have a lot of change planned over the next year] or news about the ever growing number of devices that you can now access LOVEFiLM from.
* News about exclusive LOVEFiLM events and special offers; and any general customer announcements.
We welcome comments and questions from you – and we’ll always answer when we can. We simply ask that you always show respect to fellow users; and if you have a specific problem with your account, you contact customer service directly, you’ll get a much quicker response that way.
If you want to be alerted about each post to the blog, - then you can either use the RSS feed, or you can follow us on Twitter and/or facebook.
