Blockbuster looking to add digital-media kiosks
November 8, 2007
Reuters:Blockbuster wants to help customers connect their iPods and BlackBerries to their favorite movies and games in a service the company hopes will build traffic back to its stores. Blockbuster chief executive Jim Keyes says the company is talking to both hardware and software makers about turning the video-rental chain into a destination for loading digital-media players with movies and games via a kiosk. The method should eventually be as easy as taking cash out of an ATM, he said.
