Redbox sues Universal for being weird

October 13th, 2008

Redbox, my current (and favorite) service for renting DVDs these days, has taken issue with none other than Universal Studios over new conditions proposed that could require redbox delay new releases for 45 days, limit the amount of titles in each machine, and evenĀ destroy previously-viewed movies rather than offer them for purchase by customers. So much so that they’ve filed suit against Universal in federal court because we all know what happens when you give Hollywood studios an inch.

Yeah, somebody get Universal on the horn and tell them that it’s a good thing to make money these days, not throw it away.
