It's been a while since I've purchased DVD's. In the past i had no trouble getting DVD from ADE. I saw the new rent program. I proceeded to sign up, only to find out that TX was put on the Do not ship list.
If ADE dosen't start shipping to TX, I think I'll have to move.
Don't know, but does Texas have a stricter law on pornography? If so, then it's possible ADE doesn't ship there because they don't want to get in trouble with the law.

Looks like that's the case. I don't know when they added Texas to their no-ship list but it's there now. You can see their complete list of will-not-ship areas here.
This type of issue has been brought up many times in the past and the answer has been the same in each case. Due to local and/or state laws certain adult movies may be considered obscene. The smart business move is to play it safe and obey the law instead of trying to fight an obscenity charge over a $50 order.
Well there are plenty of other legitimate online porn stores available to our friends in the Lone Star State, among them: Five Star DVD, XRentDVD and Laser's Edge.

Thanks for the info everyone... I live in Austin, there are strip clubs everywhere. 50% of all of the radio ads are about all of the great lunch special's. You gotta love the tuna fish. It's too bad that ADE exculuded the enitre state of TX, and not just certian zip codes.
I'm trying my luck at xrentdvd. I should have my first shippment of dvd's in a couple of days.
Just wanted to say I received what is my final adult order from empire today. I placed my order a week ago saturday, it was shipped the following monday, actually the day, I think i saw on their site they would no longer be shipping to Texas. So I wanted to thank everyone at empire for providing great service on all my orders. It has been a pleasure doing business with empire, unfortunately I can no longer order adult titles from them. Thanks
