Walt Disney Co. is going to try an Experimental type of DVD that will begin flying off store shelves on Tuesday and self-destruct 48 hours later. Disney movies on disposable DVDs are set to arrive in convenience stores, pharmacies and other outlets in a four-city test of whether Americans will pick up a limited-life DVD rather than dropping by a video rental store.

Circuit City tried something similar with DivX, and they lost a lot of money before just plain canning it.

Not sure how different this will be, although with DixX you needed a player with special DivX decoding software.
