CM – I agree that Netflix puts itself above the competition by helping customers find value in their entire catalog of titles. To expand beyond the kiosk, I think Redbox will also need to invest more in discovery tools for customers.

It isn’t about just streaming content, people have been doing that for years now. The secret sauce in Netflix is all about the recommendation engine.

This is just like the big game news they kept spreading. Go figure they announce their earnings call next week so they announce this. They stand no chance in the digital arena and have no plans on getting into it other then announcing the possibility to drive investment. It’s a scam!!!

Competition is always a good thing. And I don’t think it’ll be to hard for them to catch up. A lot of stuff that’s on Hulu is now available on Youtube. As long as money is involved content producers will also sell their content to Redbox.
