Netflix PVD Question Regrading "Rental" DVDs

Sometimes with popular titles, Netflix sends rental customers 'rental' versions of the DVDs. They have a gray face and say something like 'Rental disc' (I think) on the front.

Has anyone bought a popular DVD from Netflix and received one of these discs? Their FAQ says,

Q: What is included with my purchase?

A: Every previously viewed movie from Netflix includes the DVD, the original cover artwork, and a DVD hardcover case.
Technically the answer doesn't say "the original DVD" like it does for the cover artwork. Am I just being paranoid? I'm interested in buying Brokeback Mountain for $6.99 but don't want a "rental" disc. Thanks.

I have never received anything except the official commercial release of the DVD from Netflix so I wouldn't worry about it.

Licensing restrictions would prohibit Netflix from selling "Rental Only" discs.
