If it was a dollar or two to rent a movie, I'd rent a lot more. $5 seems excessive when I can buy the blu-ray version for a few dollars more.

  most movies I only ever want to see once. Actually, most movies I don't even finish. I watch fewer and fewer movies since I don't want to take the chance that I'll turn it off half way through or even 15 minutes in. I can't imagine wanting to fill up my physical or digital movie shelf with things I might not even like. I'm much more likely to buy a blu ray or dvd if I've already seen it and enjoyed it. That and kids dvds for the car are the only movies I ever purchase. Because I know that I am extremely unlikely to buy a movie I am happy to pay anything less than the purchase price to rent it if that's the only way to see it. I paid less and got exactly the value I would have gotten if I purchased it. More actually because now it's not taking up physical, digital or mental space.
