A Bad Idea Returns: Self-Destructing DVDs

I first heard about the idea of self-destructing DVDs years ago. I thought it was a bad idea that had disappeared. However, Staples has announced it will begin carrying Flexplay self-destructing DVDs rentals, which timebomb after 48 hours, so you don't have to return them.

Wow they're even more expensive than blockbuster, and all they save you is the return trip to the store.
