Digital Home Thoughts: DVD Streaming Service Goes Offline (At Least Temporarily)

"Zediva, an innovative and unlicensed DVD streaming company that ran afoul of Hollywood, has shut the online doors to its private theater to comply with a federal court order."

Earlier this month the Zediva company closed (at least temporarily) its online operations. They had what I thought was quite a unique idea for, and implementation of, a streaming DVD service. Zediva thought it could circumvent licensing requirements by literally renting customers a DVD and a DVD player, with your computer, tablet or Google TV as the remote control. Were any of you using this service, and, if so, did it work well for you?
