Renting and returning. I think we only used it three times. One when my
daughter was sick and stuck at home. Then again when they offered me a free
one. Then again when she begged and whined because whatever she wanted
wasn't on Netflix. They are, IMO a PITA. Then again, I would never
willingly rent a video anywhere.
