Yes, you are braking a contract.

No, I am not. The contract itself does not require me to return the movie within the initial time period. Rather, it allows Blockbuster to impose late fees if I do not. There's a difference.

Just because you're either too laxy or too incompentent to follow rules -- rules you knew of and agreed to ahead of time -- doesn't make the rules wrong

Read my post again. I don't have a problem with the rules. When Blockbuster changed their late fee structure, I altered my behavior accordingly. And, I suspect, so did many other folks; and as a result, they lost money. It's that simple.

Follow the rules or don't b**ch.

Again, nobody here has discussed breaking the rules. It is not breaking the rules to keep a video late, as long as you pay the late fee. It is breaking the rules if you keep a video late, and refuse to pay the fee. And of course, if you do that, Blockbuster will rightly cease to do business with you.

I am a CPA. I play by the rules and I get frosted beyond all belief when people CRY that 'It's so unfair!'.

I pity you.

"I pity you."

Me too... That poster is probably a CPA who works for BB.
