This makes me sad, but I am not surprised. We used them quite a bit, because I refusedto pay $5-7 for a streamed new release movie through shaw/google play/cineplex. The $2-2.50 price point per day I found to be perfect and the reserve/return to any box system was so easy and quick. They lacked a mobile app in Canada, which I think hurt them and it is still more difficult than streaming from an effort point of view.
Now I am not sure what I will do to see new release movies legally. I still think the $5-7 dollars to stream it is too much in this day and age and subscription based services have limited libraries/take much longer for movies to reach them. It looks like I will just be skipping more movies now than I used to, especially when we run out of scene points/movie passes for the theatres.
