Video Business: After about a year in limbo, DVDPlay has recommitted to installing rental kiosks in the entire Safeway grocery chain.
The company first moved its machines into Safeway stores in the spring of 2005, but DVDPlay stalled after 60 locations due to a lack of funding. After a $40 million infusion of capital and the appointment of new chief executive Chuck Berger, DVDPlay is set to roll into 1,600 Safeways by the middle of 2007.
