* For Rent/Own it Now on Video and DVD, a drum hit, followed by a low fanfare with a shining sound, sometimes with the echo at the end.
* For Coming Soon to Rent/Own on Video and DVD, at first, we hear an eerie muffled explosion from the flash with a few whooshes, then a louder one when "COMING SOON" zooms in. When one of the above captions appears, a low pulsing hum can be heard, before we hear the same whoosh when "COMING SOON" zoomed in, when one of the captions zoomed in.
