The appeal of Redbox is the low cost of DVD rentals and increasing the price might be risky, but as adviser to the Redbox CEO the proposal to raise the price of videos from kiosks will be a good idea. The increase is still a cheaper option than the monthly cost of live-steaming networks or going to the movie theater. Raising the price is helping offset the raising cost which includes debit card fees. Debit cards are the main transaction for customers renting from Redbox and there are substantial fees for using those cards. It will also allow Redbox to increase the number of kiosk available with new locations. “ …the company's plans to deliver greater access to Redbox® kiosks with the addition of 1,500 net new rental kiosks in 2017” (PR, 2017).

Companies like Netflix that have been in the movie streaming industry for many years, and have a large portion of the market for streaming movies make it difficult to others to enter into the online movie rental industry. Netflix has already established a large library of movies and TV shows available for its members. It would take Redbox a number of years and resources in order to catch up with the infrastructure that Netflix already has available and ready for the consumer right now. Redbox would need to analize the opportunity cost of going into a new market or staying and investing in the current kiosks market and making sure that it is the best it can be.

Redbox is typically low in overhead due to the use of kiosks to deliver their product to the consumer. The challenge lies in being able to infiltrate a new market such as the digital subscriber world of Netflix and Hulu and being able to market in a way that would appeal to the masses to draw in subscribers. In addition, increasing cost of partnerships with movie studios and the reliance of distribution agreements with distribution companies can have a significant impact on Redbox.
