CR Corp, which competes with video rental kiosks from Coinstar's Redbox, is now offering vending machines to CD, DVD and video game retailers.

Bloomberg reports that NCR ( NCR - news - people ) declined to say which retailers it might work with.

NCR operates DVD rental machines under the Blockbuster ( BBI - news - people ) Express brand, leased from Blockbuster, which is working on a Chapter 11 reorganization.

Meantime, Blockbuster said in court filings yesterday it plans to cancel leases on 150 U.S. stores, and to simply abandon any property left in the building.
