It was only a matter of time before Hollywood went down this road with the rise in online consumption of entertainment.

The question is will they price it so outrageously that people are still going to get the newest release "illegally" rather than rent it from someone legitimately?

I mean its 20 bucks to go to any movie theatre and you have your own snacks and beverages at home. I'd easily pay 10 bucks for a rental v the current 6.

If Hollywood would have given Redbox the rights to stream new rental releases, they would have owned the market. I'm sure anyone would pay $15-$20 per month for that
