Actually I was kidding in the title. I do think this is a test for much bigger things to be 'rented' through Yahoo. The strategy is pretty clear.

Renting games this way is a great way to test payment systems and piracy control before starting the mass rollout of an online movie rental service. The technology to do the games has been around for years. Just look at MSN Zone and you could see that. The old head of Yahoo, Ron Meyer, had this planned from his first day on the job. It's a plan he put in motion that's just coming to light.

I expect them to start renting movies and more importantly to us, PORNO MOVIES, by the middle of next year.

I hope all the plug ins in porn sites get a little better. I know if I was surfing for A level movies and I had the option of renting 10 full length full screen 500kbs Jenna Jameson titles for 20 bucks a month I would do it.

I'm not saying this is going to hurt what we do much, I'm just giving a heads up on what's coming from that direction.
