I've just receivedf an email advising me that Direct2Drive is joining with GameFly. Essentially D2D site, customers, most games will be migrated to GameFly's site and client. But no, they aren't going to be renting PC/Mac games.
An FAQ is available:
Direct2Drive: Download PC Games and Mac Games Now at D2D

What will happen to my games that I purchased on Direct2Drive?
Once the transition occurs, your Direct2Drive purchases will be available on the GameFly Web site and in the GameFly Client. Some older titles may not be available immediately after the transition, and will be added later. Also, GameFly will not support game guides and other non-game files. To be safe, please download your purchases and non-game files from Direct2Drive by the first week of January.

There are a couple things you can do now to ensure a smooth transition:
- Download your favorite game purchases from Direct2Drive. We plan to have as many game files as possible available on GameFly. Just to be sure, please download your old game files before the transition.
- Download all of your non-game files (like Prima Guides). These will not be supported by GameFly after the transition.

Post over in Ops suggesting a [News] prefix for the forum here if anyone wishes to support it.
