SwitchDiscs

SwitchDiscs gives you an easy way to trade DVDs, CDs, and games.

From here you can manage numerous aspects of your account.

Once a title you want is available, you can request it from another user.

Make sure you check off Display available titles only.Otherwise you will see screen after screen like this, with no available titles.

You can select which main category you want - DVDs, CDs, and Games at the top of the screen. From there, you can then search any category or genre at the top left using the drop down menus and search box.

We added two DVDs to the system and made each one available for switching. Alas, no one requested them.

Unlike other services such as Peerflix, SwitchDiscs also supports CD trading. We are not sure we would call a five year old Limp Bizkit CD Hot, however.

Adding discs is kind of fun; you input the UPC code, and then some details about the in-cluded packaging and how you plan on shipping it. Then it is added to your inventory.

Here is a screenshot of our jam-packed Wishlist. We did not see much action from it during our tests, because no one wanted the two movies we put up. As you can see, many of the titles we wanted were not available anyway.

SwitchDiscs plays up the social aspect of the trading scene; you can get to know other members.

Continuing the social networking aspect, SwitchDisc has a standard Internet forum page for talking about the service.
