If you are paying that much to buy movies online then you are shopping at the wrong sites.
You can typically beat that by quite even at "brick and mortar" stores.

I won't touch a DVD unless it's at least $20 or less. I tend to grab them when they go down to the $15 mark. As far as rentals I have been using NetFlix. $20 a month to rent all the DVD's I want. I end up seeing about 9-12 per month so at the very least I am paying about $2 per DVD rental.
