99Rental.com keeps track of the iTunes weekly movie special
A while back we noted that Apple had introduced a weekly movie rental special in the iTunes store for 99 cents. Each week there's a new movie available at the special rate (Changing Lanes [iTunes link] this week), but until now there hadn't really been a convenient way to keep track of them.Enter 99rental.com, a new site that simply lists each $0.99 movie as it comes available, with the standard iTunes plot summaries and accompanying iTunes links. Add the RSS feed to your aggregator or subscribe by email and you'll never miss out on that week's special. And since you have 30 days to watch after renting, this makes it easy to grab anything you think you might watch in that period.
Thanks Damien!
