I just stick with Amazon. I don't rent newer releases often though as the prices are kind of high IMO. But I do sub to Netflix, HBO, and Amazon Prime. Between the three I'm satisfied with their available options.
If it's only in one place, obviously there. If it's in more than one, the cheapest, though very often it's the same price (sometimes it's $1 cheaper somewhere, though). If everything is totally equal...then Google Play, since a lot of stuff is tied into my Google account and I find their app to be among the more stable for casting/renting/downloading.
Where do you guys usually buy or rent digitally from?
I like the itunes store. Sometimes they have special features and the usually have some good sales on. You can often find some good titles on sale to buy for 4.99 or 6.99.

Rentals right now are right about on the line of what I'll consider, which I guess is a sign they're priced well.
Where it gets silly is where the HD version of the rental is $4.99, and buying the film is like $12.99...that can be rough, particularly when you're almost positive you won't want or need to "own" it.
But, convenience is still great, so I can't complain too much.

I understand the price accounting for multiple viewers, but where is the math behind this? Do they know that nobody watches movies by themself.
First blush is these films would do better @ $10.
