Rent Movies… On Your Flash Drive

If you're like me then you find renting moves a royal pain. Going to the store is inconvenient, waiting in line stinks, and having to remember to take them back is even worse. NetFlix is great if you don't want something now, as is the download on demand services unless you are limited on bandwidth. So what's a person to do when they just want something now not go to the store? PortoMedia says go to their kiosk and download a movie to your flash drive.

This idea is great for those on the go wishing to take their media with them or those with a HTPC. For those wondering about the kiosks, well they can hold 350 to 5,000 titles, and will never be out of stock. Surely the content will be infected with some sort of DRM, but as long as the restrictions aren't too tight, most people should be quite happy with this service. In fact, I bet that a few of these kiosks would be a huge hit on a college campus.
