NetFlix and BB Online both suck. I hope they go down in a glorious flame, especially Blockbuster. Now, RedBox is where it's at. If you can get off your lazy arse and go down to the RedBox location (you can even get them online and go to the location for a pickup) to get a movie, it's a way better deal. $1 a night.

Only problem is that there isn't one within a 20 mi radius, so I couldn't even tell you where the closest one is. I don't think there is one in our state yet.

Never heard of RedBox but I just looked them up and there are 10 within 20 miles of us. One is just right down the street.
The problem is they have a very very small selection. Sure if you like mainstream newer crap it's not bad, but I prefer older and better movies especially of the horror type. In this regard Blockbuster and Netflix are a much better solution even though we are not using any service at this time.

What's better:

Netflix:

All HD movies stocked

Blockbuster:

Fallen prey to vendor deals, not all HD movies stocked

Yeah, Redbox isn't everywhere yet. They've been on the west coast for years and are just now getting over here in TN. As far as HD movies, you do know that Blockbuster is going 100% Blu-Ray right? But you know, you shouldn't give BB any more of your money any how, they need to go away for good.
