The company just reported a $65 million loss for Q1 2010, a sign that improvement is nowhere to be found in Blockbuster’s future.

As a former BB employee… this was a long time coming. Honestly… $5 rentals? Instead of trying to bully movie studios, maybe Jim Keyes should focus on how to bring down rental prices… that’s the only thing that might save them. I was a loyal Blockbuster employee… and now… I love redbox and netflix! There is no competition with the prices… I don’t care about a 30-day hold… (which is horrible what can Blockbuster offer the movie companies??!! Get off the boat guys… it’s sinking!)

“The” is right…I see this whole “Redbox delay window” as a way to save Blockbuster’s ass. If BB is still around in a year or two i’ll be completely shocked. I also wondered why Redbox didn’t try to say that these delay windows were unfair competition, which they are. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. If RB has to have a 30-day window, then so should Bankruptbuster.

So they are asking the studios to help them out by delaying the Redbox? I still say it’s unfair competition and Redbox should sue and stop making agreements with the conspirators.

Just to let others know, I wasted my time and tried all these codes at a Smiths, Walmart and Albertsons, none are working and they should be removed.

Said Keyes:
“In spite of the [new release delay] windows … our DVD-based competitors were successful in their ability to buy around the 30-day window restrictions by purchasing diverted product from competing retailers . . . This affected rentals in our stores”
BB rents right now The Box, The Informant, and The Vampire’s Assistant. None of these movies are even available at Red box. Don’t go blaming poor performance by your company because of management decisions. Red box and Netflix is doing to BB exactly what they did to the Mom and Pop video stores when they arrived.

and now we wait until BB closes. I think even with Redbox and Netflix’s delay, Blockbuster will still be screwed over
