Starting today, kiosks from Redbox will be offering Blu-ray discs for rental in addition to DVDs.
The discs, which will rent for $1.50 (plus tax) per night compared to $1.00 for DVDs, will initially only be available at a little more than half of their locations. As with DVDs, they can be returned to any Redbox kiosk.
The company expects to be stocking Blu-ray discs in all of their kiosks before the end of the year.
The initial selection of Blu-ray discs includes The Book of Eli, Bounty Hunter, Brooklyn's Finest & Green Zone.
With approximately 23,000 locations, Redbox is the leading operator of DVD rental kiosks in the US.
