RedBox, duh.

Big surge from acquisition. Little profit. Maybe more someday, but must unload many crane machines, must integrate many acquisitions, must please many stakeholders (Redbox co-owner, lender on secured revolver, activist shareholders). Competition is… More

Coinstar is poised for growth...aggressive growth. If you're lucky you have a Redbox in your local supermarket or walgreens. I don't think anyone really delivers a better dvd product so efficiently besides Netflix, and then again it's so darn cheap and convenient that it can't lose. Their profit margin may be slight but I imagine volume to continue to rise. I'd say that this stock could very well be trading well above $60/share in a year, depending on the economy to come...

I like Redbox. Cheap movies for folks when money is tight. I always see someone renting movie when I go by the one here near are Walgreens, or at the Walmart.
