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.

      I like Charles Lee from a personal standpoint but in terms of perfomance man this franchise has LOW standards. Borrego all over again.

      They probably pulled him off Panther coverage so he didn't ask Canales a stupid question about his past and tying it into the Vrabel situation.

      If they all are elite, that is over half the defense. Just get competent in the other 5 slots and sit back and enjoy. Scott, I know… but I worry about Wallace being a liability maybe most of all. And again, the learning curve in regards to everyone knowing their job and where they need to be. And trusting that your teammates are reliable on that count.  To me, more than the talent level, the question is how fast can they all mesh as a team? I wouldn’t be surprised if it took a few weeks to tighten it all up.
