Most of the stores in our area closed, but we still have one open. The news is that they are filing for bankruptcy, that doesn't necessarily mean they are closing their doors, yet.
Those that won't miss Blockbuster, why not? The convenience of going to a rental store, physically browsing the shelves, and picking out a movie to take home and watch right then (rather than waiting for Netflix to arrive in the mail). And it has a helluva bigger selection than those crappy Redbox bins that have like the top 20 new releases only.
Oh, and they did away with late fees YEARS back, when I still worked there in my late teens (30 now).
