Yes they would be. They aren't going out of business because they make you line up beside candy, they're going out of business because technology is making their primary product obsolete.
As far as engineering their hands into your wallet, I hate to burst your bubble but many companies do that, probably in ways you don't even realize. Seems strange to hold a grudge against Blockbuster for that. You must've been suckered into buying a lot of starburst with your movie rentals.
