If you are a member of this site you are able to watch this film for £8.50 but if you are not a member then it will cost £10. This is another way of attracting a wider audience as they may choose to stay at home but may want to watch a new film. Due to the member price being slightly lower than the non member price this may attract audiences to become a member. Becoming a member will also have many advantages and bonuses which will be beneficial for the customer and website as their general reputation will be spread around a larger market.
