When I was a kid in the 80s this sort of business model was common with TVs and video recorders, then with early PCs. The machines were too expensive for many people to buy, so they’d rent instead. Cheaper consumer electronics killed this off, but as living standards get tighter maybe we’ll start seeing rentals becoming a thing again.
I have great memories renting N64s before I owned one.
Fascinating business model.
rental sales of CDs
CDs? What would you rent CDs for? The only thing I can think of is music and win 9x games.
Japanese people use CDs quite a bit still.
Are Japan that far in the future that they’re using CD the same way we use vinyl?
Japan has been living in the year 2000 since 1980.
CDs never really went away there. Sin e 2 or 3 years I am creating a new collection of CDs.
