It’s got to be hard to run a movie rental store when there are virtually no new movies worth watching.
Even if I had a coupon for 10 free movie rentals, I doubt that I could find more than two that I would be interested in.
I have no use for Hollywood or TV. They ALL support Obam and the Islamification of Americs. The 9/11 Mosque is just another example.

The nice thing about the Blockbusters around here is that they have a pretty good selection of older movies... In fact, I was able to find a copy of the mini-series of Steven King's "The Stand," which is (IMHO) one of the best movie adaptations of King's books ever made. I had to hunt it down, only 1 store had a copy, but the long drive was worth it. They've also got a terrific selection of Kurasawa movies. Unfortunately, most of the Blockbusters around here have begun getting rid of their older movies in order to make room for Blue Ray and games.
I love being able to walk down the aisles, browsing for what looks interesting, and coming up with "interesting" double features... One of my favorites of all time was pairing Kurasawa's "Ran" with the concert video by the Talking Heads, "Stop Making Sense." Believe it or not, it really worked!

I have Netflix.
I have been renting the TV series “Moonlighting”. I visit my mom every weekend or so and the whole family sits down to watch the Moonlighting DVD. They haven’t enjoyed TV so much in over a decade. I swear to you.
There is so much content to be had with Netflix, if you can’t find new or old content you would enjoy, you aren’t looking.
I’m not saying you should subscribe, I am just saying the limited content at Blockbuster, and their huge late fees, and the fact you had to go to the store to return movies, made them obsolete.
Netflix is not having any problem making money during this depression.
