True, a lot of BB stores are closed or closing making the in store exchange difficult. Netflix announced game rentals, but it was going to be under the new name so no one is sure yet if that will happen.

I have Blockbuster but I'm still in the DVD age. I really like that I can swap them out in the store. Plus I like the fact that I can just turn the DVD player back on and start from where I left off. Streaming would be ideal but my internet connection with Comcast is so bad.

Streaming picks up from where you left off too. But there aren't enough top tier titles to go streaming alone if you want to get the latest releases.
