i think this is a bad idea. it really sounds like something a US legacy or AC would do.. or consider...
You can rent movies as well, for the sort of price you would at a DVD rental store.
Have you ever used an iPad? I was slightly cynical until I bought one. It is now my most-used item of consumer electronics by far. And if you really can't stand Apple there are plenty of other tablets on the market.
