Orbit DVD – Asheville NC

I have a feeling one of Marc’s least favorite things is the success of Netflix. I have a $8/month plan with Netflix and my girls watch tons of shows religiously on Netflix. Usually it is a TV series that they watch from beginning to end.

What I love about going to Orbit DVD is the personal recommendations. I have walked in, looked around for about 15 minutes, and decided there is nothing I want to watch. So I’ll go up to the counter and say “I can’t find anything, any recommendations?”

Usually the person behind the counter lights up and recommends something. Usually it is something great, and something I would have otherwise not watched. Do that. Seriously. Just ask.

If you haven’t signed up for the Orbit DVD newsletter, you should. Seriously, Marc needs a blog. His reviews should be on RottenTomatoes.com in my humble opinion (IMHO).

Though Skyrim has peaked my interest, I’m generally not much of a gamer, they have pretty much everything you could possibly want. Go there. Get yer game on.

Is it late fees that got you down? If you subscribe to the newsletter, occasionally Marc will offer you a reprieve. From time to time, he says “Just bring in a copy of the email newsletter” (I haven’t tried just showing the email on my smartphone yet) and all past late fees are forgiven. How cool is that?

I am ridiculously wired, and I love the automation and lack of dealing with real people to get stuff done. But I also hate watching a movie and realizing I will never get those 90 minutes back.

So if you need a good movie recommendation, and want to support local business in Asheville, go to Orbit DVD. Now.
