Top wholesale rental video titles: Titles hired 2005

Top 20 rental video titles hired (all formats) in Australian Blockbuster stores, 2005; Australian titles listed in bold

Rental values (titles hired) are currently unavailable. From 1998–2001, the AFC published annual video hire lists sourced from Video Trader based on the number of weeks a title was in the top 50. With Video Trader ceasing publication, the 2002–2005 lists were based on top renting titles in Blockbuster stores. As a result of internal restructuring, Blockbuster is unable to provide ongoing data. The Australian Visual Software Distributors Association has provided top grossing titles lists from 2002–2006 on wholesale sales value (titles shipped). See Video: Top wholesale rental DVD titles shipped, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006.
