DEAR LORD WHAT ARE YOU SAYING.
I worked as customer service for Redbox for a year, it was absolute hell and I've seen so many people being screwed over by faulty hardware, and other previous renters not giving a crap about how they abuse the movies for the next people because "they're only a dollar".. And what's worse is it's incredibly difficult to help them in any morally correct way without being fired.
If you have a functioning internet connection, I have one word to say to you:
uTorrent.

Ahahahaha!!!! Hell yeah, I remember it! I did that shit too. I rented Blockbuster DVDs and copied them using DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter. As soon as I found out I could easily do it I thought I was outsmarting the God himself. Felt so good to return movies with that smirk on my face, knowing I just got my own copy at home. That was before torrent era. I also Emuled shit and tried to burn images to DVD which took days on the old PC. But it was all over after discovering PB. Oh the good old days!

It was an exact copycat and a competitor of Blockbuster. Most people had rented from both places.

When I see people at Redbox kiosks they remind me of dinosaurs who just fucking refuse to die off.
