Redbox kiosks stock Blu-ray discs
Quote:
NOV. 24 | Redbox will start stocking some of its machines at Wal-mart stores and other retail outlets with Blu-ray Disc titles, following smaller competitor DVDPlay's decision to do the same last June.
Redbox, the largest U.S. movie-rental kiosk operator, will include Blu-ray titles in machines at "select locations in a limited number of markets nationwide," said Gary Lancina, vice president of marketing at Redbox, who declined to specify how many machines will have Blu-ray discs or how big Redbox's Blu-ray inventory will be. Redbox will charge $1 for a daily rental fee, the same price as standard-definition disc rentals.
The kiosks will carry Blu-ray titles from a variety of studios, with Paramount Home Entertainment's Tropic Thunder, Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment's WALL-E and Universal Studios Home Entertainment's Hellboy II: The Golden Army promoted on the Redbox Web site.
