Not only is Redbox still around, it kicked off a big expansion this year. And on Thursday, The Walt Disney Company filed a lawsuit against the kiosk DVD rental company for its practice of reselling digital download codes that come with Disney DVDs. If the house of the mouse succeeds in court, Redbox is in a lot of…

Redbox Instant, Verizon's Netflix-battling streaming movie service and the companion to the automated DVD rental kiosk in your grocery store's entryway, is shutting down on October 7th at 11:59PM. Better get your binge-watching out of your system now.

Sick of Netflix? Verizon's Redbox Instant service-a cheaper competitor-starts rolling out in beta today. Here's how to get in on the action (or at least, on the waitlist).

Verizon and Redbox are officially kicking off a streaming movie service. Sort of. Redbox Instant by Verizon goes into beta this month, and you have to have an invitation to get behind the velvet rope for now.

Redbox is like your neighborhood weed dealer—you can find it in front of a 7-11 any time, day or night, hawking the latest and greatest in entertainment products—so long as you don't mind doing business on the street corner. And, starting Sunday, you'll be able to sample the wares for a day at no cost.

You might think Redbox, after partnering up with Verizon this morning, is getting out of the disc business. Hardly! The kiosk king is actually beefing up its physical presence.

Rumors had previously suggested Verizon and Redbox were working on a streaming movie service to go against the likes of Netflix, Amazon and Hulu. Those rumors were true. The two companies will offer video content on demand, but to what extent still remains to be seen.

While Netflix is happy to kowtow to Warner Brothers Studio's title-delaying demands, Redbox is having none of it. The curbside video rental chain just let its contract with WB expire over the issue—allowing Redbox to rent its WB catalog ahead of the competition.

Verizon and Redbox are reportedly gearing up to poop out a TV and movie streaming service. Great. Because what the world needs now is yet another streaming content provider with a nonsensical pricing scheme. Please don't no stop ugh. UGH.

Redbox, the easiest way to rent a movie for a buck a day, is getting a price hike. And it's a 20% increase! Which makes the price of a Redbox DVD rental a more inconvenient $1.20. Bye, bye dollar days. It's something to do with debit card fees.

You're outraged (OUTRAGED!) that Netflix's price hike has stolen your cheap movie rentals. In fact, you're going to delete your subscription. Forever. Now what? Here's how to replace Netflix in your life, from streaming to shiny plastic discs.

You know Blockbuster's incredibly smug ad campaign about how they get new releases 28 days before Netflix? NOT ANYMORE! You see, in a cost-cutting move, they just agreed to deals with Warners, Fox and Universal to delay new release offerings.

Recently bankrupted Blockbuster is jumping back in the game with a $15 to $20 million TV ad campaign. Reuters reports that Blockbuster is once again trying to raise awareness that it has new releases 28 days before Netflix and Redbox.

Apparently, your local library is the biggest DVD rental store in the US. According to a survey released by the Online Computer Library Center, US public libraries lend an average 2.1 million movies/day. That's more than Netflix, Redbox and Blockbuster.

Redbox, the Coinstar-owned company who puts those nifty DVD rental kiosks everywhere, is apparently plotting how to take down Netflix. Step one: Offer more than 200 or so movies.
