I was exited to try Redbox Instant at first. Then I had problems right out of the gate. I had to instant message customer service and though they were nice I spent 20 minutes with them apologizing to me but not getting anything done. After 20 minutes of that I'm told they would be sending all my information to Tech Support and someone should contact me in 72 hours.
I got Redbox to work on my IPad so I tried to watch a movie on it. "Footloose" The newest movie they had on the site. Not the original one the remake. I was told when I hit watch movie that I couldn't watch the movie that it may have been taken off the site.
I didn't like Redbox instant. You do not get any TV show only movies and the movie selection is small and full of old movies. Mostly 1990 and 1980 movies. One thing that makes it different than other services is they give you 4 dvd rentals, but this is only good for $1 dvd and you cant use that $1 as credit towards Blue Ray or Games, and pay the difference. That would be nice.
I think if they put newer movies on so that they can compare to Hulu Plus and Netfix then this would be nice but as it stands right now this is a waste of $8 a month in my opinion and you could get more entertainment out of the Redbox machine with that money.
Redbox instant gets a big thumbs down from me.
