maintaining its disc-by-mail service, but GameFly
seems to be embracing it. On April 4th, the company
will begin shipping DVD and Blu-ray discs to
customers with a 2-game (or higher) GameFly
subscription. The program is a test, Gamefly CEO Dave
Hodess told VentureBeat, launched in the wake of
subscriber pleas for film rentals. It's free for now --
piggybacking on the company's existing game
distribution network -- but Hodess says that Gamefly
will monitor the test and tweak the program as needed.
While we don't know how large the company's film
library is just yet, the beta presents an interesting
alternative for folks who miss the duality of
Blockbuster's defunct disc service.
