Coinstar, Inc. (CSTR) Is No Netflix, Inc. (NFLX) Killer

Page 2 of 2

Coinstar, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSTR) stock has fallen over the past year — while Netflix shares have more than tripled — because everyone knows what consumers are choosing in the real world. Why would they make a different choice when the still-barren Redbox Instant is available alongside Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) and several other options on a streaming player?

There’s certainly nothing negative about Redbox Instant being added to Roku media players, but it’s not something that will either threaten Netflix or help improve the ho-hum prospects for owners of Coinstar, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSTR) stock.
