I'll likely cancel the service.  I've had it for over a year and a half, while the instant streaming is great, it isn't like there is an amazing new selection.  At least that I haven't already seen.  So with the second increase in a year, may as well save myself 120$ a year or so and just grab a redbox every now and then.

Is Redbox limited to the covers they have on the outside of the kiosk?  Cuz the times I've looked the selection was shit.

Yeah, we are cancelling as well. I use the streaming a lot, but 60% increase? No thanks.

Nah, they have more than that, though not much. Maybe 100 titles? I don't know how much the selection varies from machine to machine either.

BBC iPlayer seems to cover most of my needs, together with the occasional dvd rental/purchase.   :bowler:

They're demographically-oriented.  My closest Redbox has nothing by Tyler Perry movies.  YMMV.

I've found blockbuster stores to be tolerable since the bankruptcy. Prices are reasonable, and the employees seem to be less jerkish (FULLSCREEN? YOU DARE RENT A FULLSCREEN MOVIE ON MY WATCH!?!)

I'm sure that's the preferred method for infomercials.

I prefer full screen, my tv's not all that big and I don't want to spend the movie squinting.
