OAKBROOK TERRACE, Ill. — Redbox, the fully automated DVD rental system featuring new release rentals for $1 per night, has announced an agreement with Wal-Mart to expand its network of automated DVD rental kiosks to the majority of Wal-Mart's 3,542 stores nationwide. Currently available at nearly 800 U.S. Wal-Mart locations, redbox will install kiosks at approximately 2,700 additional Wal-Mart stores beginning in the first half of 2008 and continuing into 2009.
 
"Redbox's $1 per night DVD rental kiosks have offered added convenience at select Wal-Mart stores since 2006, and we look forward to our continued growth within Wal-Mart's extensive network of locations," said Gregg Kaplan, redbox's chief executive officer.
