Things that are killing the American economy

Not gonna lie, but Treize has a good point. Netflix is far superior to Blockbuster just on convenience alone. If you can wait a little bit for the movie you want, you can have unlimited movies streamed on your PS3/ 360, or delivered, for the price of a Blockbuster rental.

In general, if you can replace a mostly unskilled laborer with a robot, it'll yield bigger rewards in the future for the company. It's unfortunate for the human side of things, but for those in a position where a robot could **** you over, it blows

Yea, I pretty much just use Netflix. My PS3 streams movies to me instantly and on demand. Movies that are rare and unattainable from that shit store Movie Gallery(used to work there) and other franchises. Movies that aren't on the instant queue I get in the mail, on demand and can keep for however long I want. Not to mention that I copy most of the movies with my recorder and only have to rent them once.

This is above and beyond a rental store or even a redbox. I'm afraid it's just an industry we're going to have to say goodbye to. Pretty soon, the movies in the mail thing will die as well. They'll all be streaming straight to the TV for a monthly fee. Personally, I think it's great because it puts more variety and choice in the hands of the average viewer.
