I don't think they're paying retail price per copy, but I'm pretty sure they exchange some money with an up front payment. Makes you wonder if they expect people to pay for other games on the client, or if they're getting their money back in other ways.

    I'm sure it's so you visit the store once a week. For online stores visits are the only way you get sales, so they want you to visit as often as possible.

    There is probably some data that the client sends too. But that is the defacto standard these days.
