    I may try to use it. The only problem I see is the lack of games.

    That is my concern. What if you forget about the rental and go on vacation?

    I know a guy who rents them from redbox, copies them and returns them on the same day. The cops in my area really don't care. In fact,a few months ago, he actually showed a few of the cops in his neighborhood how to do it.

    I take back what I said about Redbox. Redbox is quick as hell if the game is in the box you go to.

    Gamefly can't compare against Red Box in speed, no way.
