Hard to compete against Redbox:
-Put an entire DVD/Games store inside a red container the size of a refrigerator.
-Put a red container in every grocery store so that customers have easy access.
-Connect those red containers to the web for easy ordering and browsing from a smart phone.
-Charge less money than Blockbuster.

It is hard to compete against a mechanical box. I use them and they are convenient as all get out but the one thing the storefront BB still was good for was older movies. Not too many of those in the boxes, mainly recent stuff. I suppose there are ways to get them online and there will probably be a few local rental places that adapt and survive, however.
Smartphone App might be good but their website is sloooooooow.
Yeah, but...
I’ve quit going to Redbox. Just like Blockbuster they have NO first run movies in stock.
Just a bunch of “released to video” titles of stuff that nobody wanted to see then. And certainly not worth renting now.
