 Piracy isn't their only competitor.  I'm already paying too much for
 cable TV, and suddenly the PVR makes cable a big competitor to renting.
 You can watch whenever you want and have a big selection of movies
 ready to go, without having to watch TV ads.  And flame away, but I
 prefer to have graphic images and language trimmed out.
 
 Between the inconvenience of going to the rental place twice and paying
 late fees most of the time, I just don't like to rent.
