Play.com is an online retailer that specialises in the selling of DVDs, CDs, books, gadgets, mp3 downloads and other electronic products. The site is famous for having every DVD in stock available along with "free" delivery on all items. It is most popular in the UK because it can import products £18 and under without charging for value added tax (VAT).

- Play.com offers the chance to use and give "vouchers". The user types in the reciever's e-mail address and then enters the amount they wish to give (anything from £5 to £200), the user can then write a personal message if they wish. If the user doesn't want to send it to the reciever directly, they can send it to their own, print it off, then give it to them hand-to-hand. The only downside is that hackers could easily fake a voucher or hack into the e-mail or use it before the reciever. Security is the main issue.
