What happens to my designs with a specific font after my rental is over, from a legal perspective?

Fontstand is a Mac OS X app that allows you to try fonts for free or rent them by the month for desktop use for just a fraction of the regular price. One-click font activation for all your OS X apps.
Damn, this is actually amazing. I've always struggled with the fact that Typekit locks your font tests to Adobe apps and haven't wanted to pay up-front cash to try out a font. This looks like it solves font licensing for good (if they can get the font foundries on board), particularly for freelancers.

Great idea. Already started trying it out to review some type specimens for an upcoming project.

I've been using Fontstand since it launched. I've purchased several fonts for a couple projects and it is a fantastic service. The list of (growing) foundries is a who's who of amazing type designers.
