Friday, December 11, 2009
One of the hottest selling items this Christmas is the Blu-Ray player. A significant number of the big sales at discount stores and electronic houses were trying to get blu-ray players under $200 or even under $100! Walmart had 5 blu-ray players in its Black Friday ads this year. One of those, the Magnavox Blu-Ray DVD Player, NB500MG1F was an astounding $78! Even one of my favorites, the Samsung BD-P1590 Blu-Ray Disc Player which supports Netflix and Pandora streaming is only $99.99 at TigerDirect . With this push to get players into the households, will we see an upswing in Blu-Ray discs? I’m not sure it’ll really jump because of that. I’m finding that in my own household, what is holding me back is the rental kiosks not stocking Blu-Ray. You see, I don’t feel the need to own too many movies these days, and with Netflix streaming and all of the free Video on Demand I’m pretty much a movie renter these days. Its cheaper to rent the movie the 4-5 times I’ll watch it over my lifetime than to own it. But that’s only feasible when its fast and easy to rent it at only $1 per day. With all of the rental kiosks near my house (I have 10 within a mile – one of those is Blockbuster Express ), I can make a quick trip down the street and pick up most any movie I want to watch. If the movie is one of those that my younger kids might watch over and over, well they don’t really care whether its in Blu-Ray or VHS! So those movies tend to be in DVD format because they are cheap and can be backed up. So I really don’t have a need for a Blu-Ray player even at $78 because I cannot get the movies from the DVD rental kiosks yet. I realize its a chicken and egg situation. Once the kiosks start making Blu-Ray’s available, I’ll probably get a player. Or I might finally succumb to the Netflix streaming and purchase one just for that and get the Blu-Ray as a bonus. Meanwhile, I guess I’ll put my HD-DVD player I ran out and purchased early up on eBay .

Wednesday, October 7, 2009
Alex Camara, who left Redbox parent company Coinstar and joined NCR in June 2009 as the VP and General Manager of the Entertainment division, knows the DVD kiosk industry well. He sat down with Danny King over at Video Business for an interview. You can find the full text at Video Business Online . In the interview he tries to distinguish how Blockbuster Express is and will be different from Redbox. By having double the capacity and by working on a future with digital downloads they hope to differentiate themselves. He also states his understanding that consumers expect them to provide new release movies on the release date but that they must work hand-in-hand with the studios to make that happen. He believes that the DVD Kiosk marketplace has not stolen from the home entertainment pie but has, in fact, grown it. Check out the full interview at Video Business .
