Your rental queue is a list of films that you would like to see. Place as many films in your rental queue and position them in the priority
you would like to see them. All films in a priority group are then sorted alphabetically and are selected as such. We will send out your
first available choice in stock.

You can log on at any time to add new movies to your list or change the order of preference of your movies.

How many movies can I have in my queue?
Your rental queue is unlimited but we strongly suggest that you keep at least 15 titles so as to guarantee a steady flow of movies,
especially if you have joined our Gold service.
PLEASE KEEP A MINIMUM OF 10 TITLES IN YOUR Rental queue AT ALL TIMES!
