It rubs the lotion on its skin

Back to the cellar with you, Coinstar. I believe today's "dead cat bounce" will result in Coinstar getting the hose again. Notice I am using quotes from 20 year old movies, in deference to Coinstar's crappy movie selection. Not that Silence of the Lambs was a crappy movie... on the contrary, it was great. It taught me "the tuck" and blessed me with the phrase "great big fat person" which I love to use all the time. More of a fad than NFLX with not nearly the cachet or brand equity, CSTR will eventually end up in the "what ever happened to" bin. Maybe some nut job traders will pump it up, who knows, but I am with the shorts on this one.

Great big fat person. hahahahahahaha it never gets old.

Amazon adds streaming to Prime. http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/amazon-adds-streaming-tv-movies-to-prime-coul...
This certainly makes it seem very unlikely that CSTR's streaming partner will be AMZN.

Shareholder class action lawsuit filed today. This seems bogus to me, at first glance.

http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/shareholder-class-action-filed-agai...

"the Company failed to disclose and misrepresented the following material adverse facts which were known to defendants or recklessly disregarded by them: (1) that the Company's revenues were significantly, adversely impacted by the agreement it had with several movie studios to delay new release availability in its kiosks by 28 days; (2) that the Company was not able to properly and effectively manage its inventory"

perhaps all the "news" related to this stock is bogus. Sort of like OPEN.
