Yeah, if you have to make two special trips out to rent and return, then the gas and your time makes a RedBox run make little sense.
However, if you're at the store anyway, or your daily commute takes you right past a Redbox, then paying $2 (or nothing) for a blu-ray rental is the cheapest way to watch a new release movie. Way cheaper than $6 for a streaming rental. Even better when they offer 4K blu-rays for $2.50 (vs buying it for $20+) but those are awfully limited.

If you live near a redbox it doesn't take that much time to pick up the rental. No brainer for free. You won't spend more than 50 cents in two round trips for gas.
Hack a $20 firestick and watch anything for free hill people, google it
Tried that years ago and there was no stability in connection or quality, and I was wasting more time searching than watching what I wanted. Also required a good amount of upkeep to ensure the fire stick was running well.
