Wired News: Swap DVDs Online for a Buck

The idea is simple: You sign up at the website, list the DVDs you own and DVDs you want. When another Peerflix member requests your movie, an automated e-mail alerts you and you send the person the film through the mail. Likewise, when you request a movie, another member is alerted, and you should have it in your hands days later. You pay $1 (plus postage) for every exchange.

Unlike the online DVD rental service Netflix, there's no central DVD warehouse -- the movies come directly from other film fans.
