Renting Categories (updated 02/13/10)
People are always asking what rents the most. Well --
here's the answer. I prefer to base this on "Turns per copy" (number of times the average films rents per year) rather
than "Total Plays" because I think this gives smaller categories
equal oppurtunity againt the monster categories. You might think otherwise so here are both lists (all data is for the previous 12 months): |
