This is so disappointing to me. I install home theatres / media rooms for my clients and ALWAYS recommended that they use redbox (or bought blurays) when watching movies. On a nice system, the differences between streaming or the arrrrr matie downloads are very significant.
In my perfect world, redbox would have eventually carried UHD blurays (4k) when they become available. UHD blurays are going to make alot of people's jaws drop when they first see them. Streaming services like 4k netflix are not going to even come close for a long, long time. UHD blurays are going to support higher color bitrates, HDR etc which are going to make a much larger impact on video quality than the 4x increase in resolution.
The new sound formats (which are going to be amazing) such as aura, dolby atmos, DTS UHD, will unlikely be streamed by any source online as well.
