I quit BB years ago due to Hollywood Video offering 3.99 for 5 evenings.
I rent lots of dvd's, love movies, hardly watch any tv shows.
I wouldn't be so quick to predict the demise of brick and mortar video stores. When movies first were available on vhs, I thought that would have closed down theatres everywhere. But more and more people go to the theatre, then buy or rent the dvd later.

Another reason Blockbuster is a dying breed is cheap DVDs. I have stocked up on many DVDs. Some were from my favorite TV shows. Some were movies I bought at Walmart for $5.50. Now some DVDs of old movies are selling for $1.00.

Who wants to go out a rent a movie when you have a whole DVD library at home that you haven't seen yet?
