If they keep going in the direction they are, they will be gone in 5 years.
One thing we should get straight is that RedBox is no Netflix. Redbox is great, but the selection is probably .00001% of what Netflix has. EVERYTHING that exists is on Netflix.

RedBox gets a small percentage of what just came out -- and it takes longer for them to actually start renting it. I use the RB all the time, but if I wanted to see Buster Keaton in The General, I'd have to use Netflix.
