RedBox is good for those times for Hollywood new releases. Other than that, they have no chance to compete with the variety of video stores. Besides apple and amazon.com will be taking over this world very shortly, so before you invest too much in RedBox, diversify and pay attention to TECHNOLOGY. It is the way of the future and in this case entertainment. Yes. RedBox is good for those times for Hollywood new releases.

I see it going as big as Mcdonalds or Walmart's stock. This is a company which in 2 years (since major take-off) has gone from 200 machines to 12,000 machines nationwide. There is only one place to go and thats up. Blockbuster & Hollywood Video will fall by 2009 unless they drop their prices to $1, which they can't afford to do. You can't compete against a Kiosk.

You can't beat their basic MVP plan. Under 16 bucks a month, you can rent unlimited rentals 3 at a time. You have to wait a few weeks for the brand new releases to become part of the basic plan, that's the only downfall - but you're free to get anything else that's been out more than a month. If you don't mind the wait on new releases, then you got it made. I used to go there every day when I lived a couple blocks away. Rent 3, take em back, get 3 more. No money to hand over. If you don't rent many movies than Redbox is the best - as long as they got what you want. Actually, Hollywood Video has the best deal around if you have one close enough to you.

In a heartbeat. I just want to know when so I can make sure I can get in on it. It's a great idea and they have a great selection of movies. My only complaint is the line is too long because so many people are using it. But everyone I talk to absolutely loves it. And it is so easy to use. This might be the demise of Hollywood Video and Blockbuster who have been way overcharging us for years and even a better concept and pricing model then Netflix. Are you kidding? In a heartbeat.

What can you buy for a dollar at those places? A bun with a piece of meat so small you can not taste it? Not even a 20oz coke. The coke vending machine right beside the redbox is $1.25. The coke is more than the movie!!!!! Blockbuster next door is $4.50 for a movie. Everyone has a debit card these days??? Everyone goes to walmart at least twice a week. And this provides these same people with CHEAP entertainment. There are a lot more middle class and lower class people now than the last 20 years simply because inflation. By the way have you seen WMT stock price? I would love to have my business inside their front door. People are watching their money close. The more things you can get at one stop the more people will spend to save gas money. Great idea!!!!! If it is priced right I WOULD LOVE to own part of the company with what I have seen thus far.

I'll buy. A buck a night in a recession with the bonus of codes to keep it interesting. Online reservations a big plus. Likelyhood of major retailers installing vending machines a real possibility. Only downside is waiting in line for new releases and weekend nights. Great opportunity. I’ll buy. A buck a night in a recession with the bonus of codes to keep it interesting.

THEN they should go for something else. my 2 cents To prohmimo, college campuses will not be good locations because the school halts during summer and winter breaks.
