The first discs were released in the U.S. in 1997.
The release of The Matrix prompted many people to purchase a DVD player.
Thirteen years later, you can rent a Blu-Ray disc at a RedBox kiosk for $1.50.
As of now, there are no movie rental places within 3 miles of where I live. There is RedBox kiosk at a nearby grocery store.
As of last year, all TV broadcasts are in digital format.
The push is on to 3D television. I haven't even bought a flat screen yet.
I can stream more movies to my computer than I know what to do with.
You could jump multiple generations of technological upgrades with a single trip to the nearest electronics store.
Enter The Singulariyy?

I haven't come across redbox kiosks, do they print out the dvd while you wait? -Kate
No, they have limited subset of DVDs (and now Blu-Ray) mostly for the latest and hottest movies.
Thanks B, we're still searching for a good movie solution, hopefully when streaming finally works properly we may be able to watch those slightly obscure finds.
