Interesting concept. Personally, I get the stuff I don't buy or review (DVDs and books) from the public library. My library allows me to order online and pick up when available. It usually has all the stuff my local Blockbuster Video has, except for maybe 2 or 3 weeks later. This rextopia seems like it has some stiff competion from the library market. Plus I wonder who will want to buy used books. The other downside is it takes so long to read a book that you may not feel like you're getting your money's worth like with Netflix where it only takes a couple of hours to see a movie.

It'll be interesting if this idea takes off like Netflix and Gamefly.

I bet it would make more sense to invest in a XXX version of Netflix. You have to wonder just how sticky those flicks would end up though. LOL!
