Feels like even without streaming or even Netflix’s original DVD-by-mail delivery service, Redbox could’ve eaten brick and mortar movie rental stores.

According to a coworker, Redbox/Outerwall had massive management issues, which probably explains why they had so much trouble. He insisted that the corporate culture got significantly better when private equity bought them out, which is a statement I don't recall ever having heard before.

I don't recall Redbox existing, at least in my area, during that time.

This was before Netflix streaming, when Netflix was just dvds.

Yeah -- still don't remember Redbox then. I did use Netflix DVDs by mail, too.
