PROFILE |
 |
Hmm, what to say about BlackStar.co.uk, the largest online video retailer in all the king's land? One thing is certain -- from adult flicks and blockbuster epics to children's cartoons and international indie films, the e-tailer is a movie buff's paradise. The Web site features movie and TV listings and a search service for hard-to-find films, and it provides free delivery worldwide. (The company has customers in more than 100 countries.) Founders Tony Bowden, Darryl Collins, and Jeremy Glover manage BlackStar.co.uk, and each owns about 17% of the firm. Major investors include Atlas Venture and a consortium led by Ryanair chairman David Bonderman. BlackStar.co.uk was founded in January 1998.
