Upstart name: ReleaseDatez
Upstart URL: http://www.releasedatez.com/
Date of launch:November 1, 2008
Tell us about your upstart business: The idea for ReleaseDatez started when I noticed Netflix did not display their DVD releases by release dates and I was missing a lot of the newest releases. There are sites out there that gives information about popular DVD releases but none that would display ALL DVD (popular or not). I know there are people out there that might share the same problem that I have. So I wanted to make a site that would display all items (popular or not) based on their release dates.
