I want to see a for-profit enterprise to augment the Public Library system. Kind of like how both the local BlockBuster and the local used DVD store augment the Public Library's video collection.
I've never thought about the rental option, but I would like it. If I could get something like my Netflix account (1 movie a month, $10.99 with blu ray) and just rent books I'd be all for it.

Have a monthly fee of $10 or whatever, one book at a time, have to delete it before you can rent another etc. Would work great for me.
