Blockbuster to rent PC games

Blockbuster announced that it has launched a trial program across 14 North American cities to test a new technology that would let the company rent out PC games to its customers. Called NetActive, this new technology will activate rented games for five evenings, after which the game expires. Customers will be able to either extend their rental period for another five days or purchase the game outright. Full story. -- Amer Ajami, GameSpot
