Fatso is a New Zealand online DVD and video game rental service, which mails DVD's, Blu-ray discs and video games to viewers around New Zealand. Fatso was founded in 2004 and is based in Auckland, New Zealand's largest city. As of 2011, Fatso was offering a range of over 27,000 titles to around 20,000 subscribers, and had a full-time staff of 25. This means it is the largest such rental service in New Zealand. It is operated by SKY TV, which owns 51% of the enterprise. == History == Fatso was founded in 2004 by Rob Berman of Westside Media.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.nzherald.co.nz/technology/news/article.cfm?c_id=5&objectid=10517301 )〕 In 2008 it merged with competitors DVD Unlimited and Movieshack to form Screen Enterprises Limited, which operates a single service under the Fatso name. SKY TV (which operated DVD Unlimited) owns 51%, with Berman as general manager. The merger was reported as being due to the home delivered DVD market not being "big enough for the three of them."〔 In 2012 Fatso began offering video game rental, with as service known as "Games Club". It is operated in a different way to the DVD and Blu-ray rentals, with a daily charge per game. In August 2013 Berman left Fatso, moving to Shop HQ, an e-commerce venture backed by The Warehouse. Berman retained his stake in Fatso. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fatso (New Zealand)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
