We used to have a store here called AtoZ Software that opened up a couple
of years back. They were srtictly a software rental store and were doing
*very* good business from it. They ran into quite a bit of trouble (SPA et
al) over it. I didn't follow it too close but I don't think that they rent
software any more. :(
