Amazon have just released what I would consider to be a pretty revolutionary new service: Amazon Unbox.
The idea is that you can buy or rent films in the same way you can buy songs from iTunes. You simple pay for the film and you can download it for viewing on your PC or Pocket PC.
I’ve just tried to buy my first film and have got the following error message:
We’re sorry!
An error occurred when we tried to process your request. Rest assured, we’re working to resolve the problem as soon as possible. If you were trying to make a purchase, please check Your Account to confirm that the order was placed. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Grrr.. never mind - I’ll try again later. Bit dissappointed though!

UPDATE: Just read the small print: US customers only!
