Redbox Instant... looks great, but is it coming to Apple TV?

Ya right. Apple wants you to rent/buy from itunes and would never allow this.

Wouldn't it be the same as Netflix?

Ya I guess so, I thought Redbox streaming was going to provide newer stuff but it's mostly old stuff like Netflix.

naw Redbox has always had earlier movies than netflix.
TED & Amazing spiderman are currently streaming. While netflix will take even longer to get these movies. If Redbox comes out for apple tv, xbox,PS3. IM switching. There's no doubt about it.

It took forever to add Hulu

Redbox streaming is not as big as Netflix/Hulu

Maybe in a few years when it's gets more popular

I haven't looked, does the Redbox Instant app support AirPlay from iPhone or ipad?

That's partially true. If you notice, Redbox Instant is broken into 3 types. There is "Subscription" (unlimited streaming), "At Kiosk" (physical DVD/Blu Ray) and "Rent/Buy" (on demand single viewing rental). Ted and Amazing Spiderman fall under the "Rent/Buy" section, which means you either consume one of the 4 free rentals or you pay the $4.99 SD/$5.99 HD fee to rent it. Redbox also has _no_ TV shows at all. At best I would say Redbox is 4th behind Netflix, Hulu Plus and Amazon as far as streaming services go.
