I'm upgrading to a faster DSL connection on Friday, and my ISP jumped the gun on the changes, so my DSL was out for nine hours yesterday. There will probably be an outage on Friday as well.
There's a new update available. Many new titles, new enrollments, and new price decreases. There are now over 5000 titles available (including VHS and games).

I was looking at the new update, and I came across a few titles that are supposedly not available for enrollment, yet I am able to put them in my "shopping cart" on the website. What's even more odd is that going through the 6/21 update last night, many of these titles were listed as available for enrollment, and now they are not. A few examples include Blade II and Donnie Darko.
I hope I am making sense. Basically, look at the differences between the 6/21 and 6/28 updates for Blade II, and then look at it on the CH website and see if you can put it in your cart as a new enrollment title.
Thanks.

Being able to put a "non-enrollment" title in your cart happened to me a while back(about a year ago). Needless to say, I didn't get it.
BTW, were you able to proceed thru checkout(up to actually placing the order)? When I did it back when, the checkout verification routine blocked that non-enrollment title on me.

I hadn't tried to actually checkout, so I'm not sure how far it will let me go.
BTW, I found a few more titles that were enrollment elligle in the last update but are not today, including Adaptation and (as if I actually care about this one) Bring It On.
If it is true that I cannot get these titles (Bring It On not withstanding), that is very disapointing. I spent a good deal of time last night determining what titles I wanted, but I couldn't find my old PSN so I couldn't sign up right away.
Does it happen often where the enrollment status of titles will change? And what is the reason for it? For example, Donnie Darko makes no sense to me, since it's retail value is $14.95.

I keep finding more and more titles with this glitch. An incomplete list:
solaris
adaptation
blade 2
shrek
donnie darko
stephen king's storm of the century
wizard of oz
this is spinal tap : special edition
beautiful mind
snatch
and more that I have noticed but failed to write down.
You can find these titles on the website, and even put them in your cart. But they don't seem to show up when browsing genres. Is there any rhyme or reason to this?

Okay, check that. I am able to find these titles by browsing the site. So perhaps it is a glitch with the update itself? I don't mean to offend anyone. I'm just curious to figure out what's going on. Thanks.

bga would be the first to admit that his data mining program is still a little buggy. These titles have all been around for more than 3 months, so it is no surprise you can find them on the enrollment site.

You shouldn't have any problem at all. You may want to call in your order, for phone applications have a higher success rate.
I've enrolled with Donnie Darko, Clockwork Orange, Big Lebowski, Dracula, Snatch, Full Metal Jacket, Dogma, Sleepy Hollow and Blade II on separate occasions in the past.

I don't know what went wrong, but my data miner did find about 900 fewer enrollment titles than normal. I restarted it at the search for enrollment phase, and it looks like the list is correct this time. Who knows, maybe I was searching for enrollments while CH was updating their website. I deleted the results from this morning.
