well hate to tell ya, but my local Family Video is now cheaper than Redbox. The only reason I still just go to Redbox is the convenience – they are everywhere!

Mom & Pop will be going out of business within a year unless they have something else they can sell. That’s nowhere near enough money coming in to cover the overhead of having a physical store with monthly rent due.

Redbox opened the door for cheap movie rentials. Now mom & pop movie rentials are under cutting Redbox. NITE CAP VIDEO, KULPMONT, .75 a movie per night, but you must rent 2 . Thats 2 movies for $1.50 !! DO THE MATH. Redbox is getting GREEDY

Except that the profits are shrinking because their costs are rising.

I do have hopes for the company though if they raise their rates to $2.00 for the first day and $1.00 for each additional day.

That would make economic sense for them and reduce their costs by getting the recalcitrant studios back on board.

$1.00 a night rentals make no economic sense for Redbox.

Even though I wish some of that money were coming my way, I’m glad for RedBox. Very cool to see those stats. Glad to see a business model that favors the consumer while still getting profits to pay the bills.
