If you offered to give me every DVD and game in that MF for free I wouldn't want them.

I have a bunch of games that I don't play on my Switch already. (I only play Overwatch.. pretty poorly)

It’s a little wild to think I’ve never used Red Box in my life.

Give me an example.

I know that EVERY movie isn't streaming for free (not counting the sub) but when I went on my failed attempt to watch every marvel movie (Howard the Duck, Blade, and all not just MCU) I literally found every one I watched on a streaming I had a sub to, or for a few bucks rental on Prime. Prolly made it to like Blade 3 before I quit.

A red box in ya basement for an entertainment area would be great not gonna lie. Especially with kids.

Y’all sound old reminiscing about Redbox.

*puts on pants to go see if Blockbuster has Joker 2 for rent*

 

[Phantum]

Never used Redbox when I could easily torrent anything I wanted.

I'm not talking about smart, computer savvy nggas like US. I'm talking about the average person who pays for 3 streaming services. Of course a coli ngga can get all that shyt. Joe Sixpack can't.

Costs money to remove them

I read an article when they officially filed "point of no return" bankruptcy, a big cost issue with stores is that they're wired into the main power system and that shyt isn't cheap to fix. Walgreens probably did a cost-benefit analysis and said the $180k/month to keep them powered is a cheaper solution.
