Do you rent your videos off your ON Demand, Redbox, netflix or your neighborhood video store? What do you think is actually the better deal? I prefer to use Redbox, its just one dollar and you get 24 hours to watch it and the best thing is you can return it at ANY red box.. you pay most places 4.99 for a 5 day rental its the same thing yes a a dollar a night, but what if you go home and watch it and then return it the very next day? then you are paying for 4 nights that you not even beniefting from... on demand is the same thing you are paying 4.99 to 6.99 for 24 hour rentals.. where is the deal in that...????
I prefer to use Redbox.... its the easiet and the cheapest way.

I'm a Redbox girl! Every Tuesday either me or my husband go and rent whatever new movie came out. It's our family movie night. The best part is that he has a Redbox in his office, so there really is no running out to get a movie. (Unless, of course, I am already out and about) When I rent them, though, I reserve what I want, just to insure that whatever it may be will be available when I get to the store!

I rent all my movies from Netflix and have been for about three or four years. Even if there was a Redbox near me, I wouldn't use because they wouldn't have what I want. Netflix has over 70,000 movies, and depending how long I keep a movie, it costs me betwee one and two dollars. I don't have to go out to get my movies or to return them and I can watch movies that even most Blockbuster stores don't have.

This is a good discussion and I am sure that everyone rents movies from time to time since everyone likes movies,and whenever we used to rent movies me and my parents would go to the local movie store to rent movies,and we would only do that from time to time or on a special occasion or if there was something we really wanted to see,and the last time me,my wife,and my parents rented a movie,we went to a Redbox and rented a few,and it was a whole lot more convenient and a whole lot cheaper,and I think whenever we rent movies in the future we will definitely go to the Redbox especially since I work at Wal Mart and we have a Redbox there,so I could rent them or return them on a day I work,have a great day,good luck with your life,and all of your mylotting goals,and Happy Posting.

I love Netflix. Have been using the service for many years now. I also love that I have unlimited instant online viewing of many movies and TV shows. I pay $13.99 per month for as many movies as I want, and the Netflix headquarters is so close to me that my movies come next day.
I also love Hulu. I rarely get a chance to watch Prime Time television, but I can catch all the shows I miss online with Hulu.
