Renting Movies Through Streaming Service vs. Redbox

I'm trying to figure out what is more cost effective. Renting movies though a streaming service like iTunes and Amazon Instant Video or Redbox.

Redbox is cheaper, but I have to actually go to a kiosk pick up the DVD and return the DVD for $1.28. The streaming services offer new movies for $3.99 a rental and I don't have to get up off of my couch.

So I'm thinking the streaming movies though Amazon to my Roku box is probably a better option.

For me if I order online/reserve its a dollar the first night.

Amazon streaming is free with an Amazon Prime Account.

I haven't streamed through iTunes.

I cancelled netflix as the movie pickings get slimmer and more obscure.

I'm trying out blockbuster at the moment. Not a fan so far.

You can also try EpixHD.

The Amazon Prime movies are just about the same as the Netflix streaming.

      Brother, you don't end up 32nd in rushing defense accidentally. It takes work.

      Gameday Thread Steelers

      Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.
