The nation's millions of VCR and DVD owners can now easily compare prices on thousands of movie titles including many of this year's Oscar winning films.

"We help people save time and money across all of our comparison shopping Web sites," said President and Chief Executive Officer Steve Loyola. "Our goal is to make the online shopping experience easy, pleasant and reliable. Our customers tell us that they keep coming back to our sites because they like the convenience of shopping online and they appreciate saving money. So, we will continue to launch sites our customers value."

Once at www.BestVideoBuys.com, consumers can simultaneously compare prices, including sales tax and shipping charges, at ten online stores. Best Video Buys also lists the latest store coupons on their "Hot Deals" page. These coupons help consumers save an additional $5 to $15 on their purchases or get free shipping. After the consumer chooses where to buy, Best Video Buys will take the consumer to the online store to complete the purchase.

For example, the video for the Oscar winning film "Erin Brockovich" is listed at $14.98. A price comparison search on Best Video Buys found a store selling it for $9.99 for a savings of 33 percent.
