I was hoping to see this movie tonight, but will wait until April 20 to get it at Redbox. Screw Blockbuster – they’ve been sticking it to the consumers at $3-$4 a pop for 20 years.

I don’t think so, they are owned by NCR.

Overpriced and never in stock…stopped going years ago. I will wait the four weeks for Redbox and Netfilx.

Cut them off. Give DVDs to BLOCKBUSTER 4-weeks AFTER they’ve gone to Kiosks or online.

Send them a Holiday card at their retirement home each year.

Consumers will (and it’s been proven) NOT wait and they will not pay $5 bucks a pop for something they know has a value of $1 a pop.

BLOCKBUSTER could have been a continuing player in this space. Instead, they are headed for the deadpool, slowly…please, someone, throw them a concrete block…

GO INDIES!

It’s okay though, I’ll wait the extra 4 weeks to get them from Redbox and I’ll be just fine.
