Netflix also produced and are the first broadcasters for;

- House of Cards (Season 1 and soon to be made Season 2)
- Orange is the New Black (season 1)

And a few other shows but those are just off the top of my head
Sounds like they are doing what Sky did to gain subscribers- picking up the rights for successful series, so that those following it have to change to the new rights holders service to continue to be able to do so.

Or they doing a similar thing that microsoft is doing where you pay higher for online live where u payback so much each month until paid off like a zero interest rate
Any rental contracts that I've entered into, for commercial or personal use, has included free repairs, so I would imagine that free repairs would be included in such a scheme.

Personally i would rather buy my own console rather than rent 1.
Some people find it beneficial to rent in the fast changing world of technology (in the same way that many people rented their colour TV's at first)

Some of the benefits to renting are free repairs, no initial financial outlay and the ability to upgrade easily to new models.
