Not to put them down, as they're great at what they do, but their site could really use a good upgrading.

Yeah, I received a survey from them a couple weeks ago and that was one of the things I mentioned in it. Still, their 20% sales make me forget all about the shortcomings of the website.

I go to DDD, and I'm logged out. (I never log out of DDD) I try to sign in, but I'm taken back to the main page. I've tried to log-in 5 times, but no dice.

That's odd, I logged out and logged back in and it let me.

Hey look at that...all DVDs on your wishlist are 99 cents for the next 30 minutes! Wow, what a deal! This surely won't last long.*







* just kidding about the 99 cent dvds.

I still can't log in properly, but I did notice that they seemed to listen to my Survey response. The search reaults have been improved, and now list 10 items per page for multiple hits. After that, you can refine by format, genre, or year. This is making an already great store even better!

I noticed the same thing about not logging me in under Firefox. It seems to work fine under IE. I hope they get it fixed to work on all browsers, because I really hate using IE.

Yeah, I'm using Firefox and I didn't think to try IE. It also works under Opera, which is less annoying than IE.

Yeah, the search function looks to have been upgraded. It's still a little dodgy, but a notable improvement.

And me.

I hope they get this fixed. I am very bad at delaying my spending and will likely just end up paying a bit more elsewhere.

The site seems to be very slow in loading, and that's when it does. I keep getting errors today, but yesterday was fine. Anyone else having issues today? I'm specifically trying for their 3 for 2 deal, but not having much luck spending money.
