Blockbuster Can't Stay Alive Too Much Longer Can It?


In case many of you havn't noticed many Blockbuster stores are closing, the one time rental titan seems to be on their last leg.  As hard as they tried Blockbuster's online rentral program hasn't reached the success of Netflix.  Not helping matters is the rise of Redbox and the ability to stream movies on your PC or television with ITunes, Amazon and other services.  Further proof that Blockbuster is hurting it the following news they are reintroducing late fees.  Considering that the lack of fees attracts people to other rental services this can't be a wise move by Blockbuster, but it will surely help in the short term to generate more profite.  In the long term this is sure to be Blockbuster's last gasp.
