Y'all are knocking redbox, and you're increasingly right for most places, but for many rural areas their internet is still very slow and/or data capped that makes video impossible
You’re absolutely right about rural areas. My dad has satellite internet and it’s so slow. We get ads for satellite internet in our mail all the time. I’ve looked into them and apart from the 1-3 MBPS speeds, there’s always a data cap. If I had their internet, I’d definitely use Redbox more.
Starlink has gotten pretty good if you can stomach paying $100+ a month to Elon.
