NCR Corp.’s Blockbuster Express, the second-largest operator of DVD-rental kiosks, will double the price of some movies to $2, following similar steps by rivals Redbox and Netflix Inc.
The price applies to the first night’s rental of newer releases that have been in kiosks for 29 days to 90 days, NCR Entertainment General Manager Justin Hotard said in an interview yesterday. Shoppers who keep DVDs longer will pay an additional $1 a day. The change is effective Nov. 8.
