Keep the movie as long as you need @ $1/night, but once the 25th day is reached, they will bill you for $25.00 and you keep the movie. I've been using it for well over a year and it is gaining popularity. Couple of downsides are that 1) the movies aren't delivered to your doorstep and 2) At least 1 movie studio has boycotted Red Box; claiming that they are eating into their profits.
Oh yeah, we have a bunch of those, including one in a place that sells videos(moviestop).
Only way to rent movies these days, at least older ones, in the "brick and mortar"
mode, very little overhead
