Wii Shop Channel To Get Demos, Rentals and Subscriptions?

[CantGetAWii]

A long time ago, we used a Firefox trick to view upcoming Virtual Console games. I have since forgotten how it is done, but I may want to re-learn. later on NeoGAF has posted something quite interesting. He claims that this code was found in the javascript files of the Wii Shop Channel:

var NO_WIFI = 0; /* no WIFIFREE or WIFIPAY */
var WIFI_PARTIALLY_CHARGED = 1; /* partially charged WIFI */
var WIFI_FREE = 2; /* WIFIFREE only */
var WIFI_ALL_CHARGED = 3; /* all charged WIFI */

That looks like something about the Pay to Play service, which is quite interesting, seeing as how no game has it yet (FFCC for WiiWare does, but it’s not available yet). Well, he also claims that the files hint at possible features for the Wii Shop Channel, like demos, subscriptions, and rentals. Since I don’t know how to check this, I have no way of verifying it, but if it is true, this is truly great news. Someone, go and find out if this is true!

The code thing seems a little far fetched, but it would be neat to have at least the demo feature.

Yer demos in the Shop would be awesome

That coding doesn't exactly seem legitimate.

Nintendo have already said no to demos. No chance of rentals. Subscription service has been announced as pay-to-play on a game to game basis.
