Red Box DVD Rental?

[Bill in NC]

Love Redbox

Rent online, pick up, rip, return.

Used as an 'impulse purchase' it's a great device (wish I had thought of it). Sits right be they exit to Harris Teeter Supermarket....and it gets a pretty good workout. I have used it several times and found it excellent. Selection IS limited but what do you expect from a drink machine sized unit?

Better question....why hasn't this replaced the overpriced, overcrowded, and understaffed video stores? Blockbuster on friday nights is like free crack night

I am wondering it myself. One of our local Blockbuster has been closed ... good ridden!

Red Box isn't replacing Blockbuster due to its limited selection.

in my hood, i need to go to walmart/redbox before the end of the work day time, at least on fridays. there's usually a crowd around the Redbox and i often don't have the patience to wait. that is the advantage of a video store - all the customers aren't crowding around one spot trying to figure out might still be available when your turn comes around.
