I was a Netflix customer when it was only DVDs by mail. I could order 3 at a time; I'd rip them right when they arrived and sent back for the next 3 - took around 48hrs... it was really good. I ripped so many Netflix DVDs!
People are buying the Red Box machines for less than $400 currently... dunno why you'd want one, but you can.
Early in Red Box life, me and a business partner were going to buy several. (In the early days they were working with individuals - 10k per machine...) We passed, but some entrepreneurs did well w/ Red Box.
