These machines were everywhere in France several years ago. I remember commenting that I was exceptionally disturbed that the French had more innovation in movie rentals than virtually anywhere else. I first noticed one of these machines in a newly opened Wal-Mart this year, hadn't seen one before in Canada. It's taking so long in Canada to get these new rental means set up, there's little wonder why the RIAA and MPAA are calling Canada a home for piracy. It's the only way to get a movie without paying like $7 to Blockbuster for a half-decent rental time. I've got the choice of constantly running to blockbuster to rent and return a single movie that it's going to end up costing more in gas than to rent the damn thing, because god knows blockbuster never heard of a convenient location.
