Deviant art is a great site for building your own page, making friends, sharing art and doing various other related things. It's recently got clubs and stuff too.
I can't recommend a greater art sharing site for community but ofcourse being popular gives it some problems. There's plenty of idiots and art thieves along with people who like turning it into a porn site. Still if you're able to ignore these kind of pictures and people you can make good friends and have lots of fun.

I've used love film for around a year now, a few months just paying month to month, a 6 month subscription (pay upfront for 6 months and you save more money) and now payed for another 3 months ontop of an extra month that just got paid for.

Pro's: easy to use
Easy to organize (can seperate your DVD's or games in up to 3 lists if you have a 3dvd subscription letting you organize which you want to arrive more easily).
You can rent for as long as you want (so long as your still a member)
Free delivery back and forth.
Quick delivery for the most part.
Great selection of games and DVD's

Cons: Some items will be taken up by others slowing down you getting it.
Doesn't have every game and does not have games on dreamcast or systems before that (does have Xbox, PS2 and Gamecube however) but this is understandable really. Modern systems have plenty of there games on.
Sometimes delivery is slower than hoped.

Overall though with 12 months experience I've found it to be reliable and very worthwhile. I used it for a few reasons, it allowed me to wait for games to go down in price while I played others (making it's money back), let me try multiple games and DVD's I otherwise wouldn't have tried or would have payed tons for and finally to be able to play and watch those games / DVD's I wanted to play or watch that I knew I didn't want to pay for as I'd only use them once.
It's one of the best services I've used in a long time and they deserve a good rep.

Good site for benchmarks and the odd article to help you get some PC related information but like the other review said they could explain some things a bit more for those that aren't as in the know.

Bought quite a few things from play.com and it's mostly been very good service. My only gripe is my account being awkward and not accepted my log in details quite frequently. They also don't seem to send games early anymore (which makes them arrive on the release date) and instead ship them on the release date itself making them later than if I went to a store.
Price wise and product range wise though they are very good.

Fun for a while but it's increasingly time consuming if you want to compete. Unfortunately it becomes too time consuming and if you want any hope of not being attacked all the time you need to spend your money quick and use a stupid ciicking device. Essentially you earn money by raiding others or getting upkeep which is based on how many soldiers you have, so they introduced a software where you click to get units (can get up to 2000 a day or so) and this gets utterly repetitive and ruins the game unfortunately.
It's got a good concept but alliances and clickers can make anyone playing on there own have no fun eventually.

The hut is a great site, I've ordered from there a few times with absolutely no problems. Disgaea 2 PSP is my most recent order and it's been shipped already (a few days before release) to make sure it comes in time.
I've ordered anime and games from the site, had no problems with logging in, viruses or anything of the sort and it has great prices. Recommended.

Despite the people's overexaggeration with the new layout, seems like it's not as bad. Although...
