During
CES, Redbox and
Verizon mentioned
Google TV among the platforms getting an app and now they've delivered. The Redbox Instant
app for Google TV is in the Google Play market, however only owners of
second gen hardware will be able to make full use of it. As the folks at
Google TV Friends found, it can be side loaded on the
Logitech
Revue for example and even play previews, however it won't rent any
movies. At Google I/O Redbox explained to
GigaOm that support would be restricted, while showing off a newer version of the app that will be released after the Jelly Bean Google TV update
hits and mentioning a
Roku version on the way. Redbox's support page
explains the lack of support for first generation hardware is because
only newer devices have the necessary
DRM support, owners of those boxes
can install the app from the link below.
