It's odd that you should say that, since I have noticed a big increase in movie rental prices at Blockbuster over the last year or so. (That's a cunning shift of subject since you were emphasizing the little video guy scratching for a living).

I have noticed a tremendous shift among family and friends to the flat price, all you can rent option.

Perhaps your blockbuster is different than mine. Little guy came in offering all the videos you want for the cost of 4-5 rentals a month at Blockbuster, plus you got to keep them as long as you wanted!
What did blockbuster do? they didn't raise their prices like you asserted. In fact began offering the same service at a lower price! Netflix's response? They again undercut Blockbuster.
