Netflix streaming is great. Netflix has stuff you’d never find in a million years at a video store, and they have imports that would cost $30-40 dollars if you had to buy them. Between Netflix, Redbox, YouTube, Hulu, On Demand eps from the networks, On Demand from DirecTV, Tivo, DVR’s and BitTorrent, people have no need for video stores anymore. If I miss a tv ep, I can pull it off the internet, stream it over my network and watch it on my TV with my XBox. Or I can watch Netflix on demand with their XBox app. I haven’t been in a movie rental store in years.
I am 1/2 mile from a Redbox. I get movies for 1 buck a pop.
On Demand is a good thing too.
