I think the CA scandal shows they sell access to gather it yourself, which is a fine distinction that doesnt matter in practice.

I think her thinking was "the problem started recently (~days), did the box get rebooted recently (~days) which might indicate when the problem started", rather than it should have been rebooted recently.

As the story points out, Redbox don't have an agreement with Disney, and so buy their discs at retail price. It does mean they don't get the new blockbusters (which is why they have deals with other studios), but the costs above a
