NetFlix/Blockbuster/Redbox/Retail

So, I drive past my local Blockbuster last Monday, and they have a big sign in the window saying that they have movies 28 days before Redbox and Netflix.

Tuesday, 'Shrek: Forever After' is released, and I swing by my local Redbox and pick it up.

Today, in Best Buy's ad they show that 'The Town' and 'Despicable Me' are coming out Tuesday, and that NetFlix and Redbox won't have it until January 11, 2011.

Has anyone actually experienced having to wait 4 weeks after a movie is released to get a movie from Netflix or Redbox?
