Title: Blockbuster's days are numbered

Looks like they are finally filing for bankruptcy.  I still have my blockbuster at home accout it's like $12 a month.  The only time I go to the store is to swap one of my dvd's out.  I haven't rented a movie out of pocket in a long time.  There is a Redbox kiosk next door at walgreen's that is always busy and it looks sad how a  box can take the place of a store.  I still like to go to the store and pick up the movies and read the backs of them, but the brick and mortar days are going way of the online rentals.  Thoughts.

Blockbuster and Movie Gallery were doomed the day Netflix was invented. They refused to get on the bandwagon and got left behind. I love the Netflix on XBOX.
