Although a different identity... When I worked for Blockbuster Canada (which is still alive, for now) it was right when DVD was being introduced in 1999. Long after I left... around 2004/2005 ish, they started to eliminate VHS, but wouldn't complete it until closer to 2006/2007.
They could have easily dictated the market, rather than let the market dictate what they were going to do.
I'm surprised they haven't opening an exclusive Bluray store yet. I get that not a strong number of the population have Bluray, but they would get Bluray if it meant that they could rent again.
