Why game rental is the best option to get games

How much money online game rental has saved me
Before switching to game rental I used to buy 2 games a month. At the very least, a new game costs 40$, but many cost up to 70$. Anyway, at 40$ a game, it's 960$ a year. (ouch) 2 years ago, I discovered game rental, and this how much money it has saved me :
My subscription costs me 22.95$ a month, or around 275 a year(plans start at 8.95$ for 1 game at a time). This subscription allows me to have an unlimited number of games sent to me, 2 at the same time. So do the math : 960-275 = 684. That's right, game rental has saved me 684$ in a year alone ! Remember that I can get as many games as I want. Most of the times I get 3 to 4 games sent to me every month : the savings are even greater. Check my website about game rentals if you want to read more money saving examples. (look for the table at the bottom of the page)
Which game rental service I recommend
There are 4 or 5 companies on the game rental market. And there is only one I recommend : Gamefly. Why ?
1 - They are the cheapest on the market.
2 - They have been around for a while and are the most reliable.
