And it's a bummer that RB killed video stores bc RB usually has about 13 movies.

Cost of convenience. Also, setting up an infrastructure to stream movies to lots

It's also $4 for an HD stream of a single tv episode. Too pricey for what it is.

Agreed. And often newer releases aren't available to rent, only to buy.

Netflix DVD rentals are definitely worth it, especially for new releases

redbox shut down video stores then streaming chopped RB off at the knees early

Very true. Home video availability is worse, not better.

Someone should dare to start reopening video stores with DVDs, and blu rays.

I wish I'd be born 30 years earlier. I would've loved to own a video rental
