Blockbuster ....text book examples of running a very large successful business into the ground because of lack of foresight.

How do they compete with my library that offers DVDs for free if I merely have the patience to wait till they're available to me?

All I have to do is wait till the library receives the DVD then reserve it and be placed on a waiting list. Once my reservation comes up, I receive an email telling me I can come in and pick it up.........

Blockbuster or Redbox can't even come close to that........

That's pretty smart. Maybe I'll give that a try.

I gave up on library DVDs a few years ago. Many of them were scratched so badly they wouldn't play all the way through without freezing or going pixel. Apparently the average library borrower is about as responsible as the average apartment renter.
