Long term bankruptcy candidate. Can't compete with Netflix, which itself can't compete with piracy.

I think Blockbuster is finally catching on. They're making some hefty moves towards online movies, which is the next big thing. The trickiest part of their whole business at this point are the brick-n-mortar stores and the waning demand for on-site movie rentals. If they can make use of them (turn them into music, video game, movie stores?), then great, but otherwise, they need to ditch them. Kiosk units are very popular now as well (RedBox), so they could gain some market share there as well. Overall I think they're making the moves they need to.

Negative sales growth over the past 4 years. Although Blockbuster has the same mail rental system as Nexflix, they are not as good at it. Blockbusters plans are more expensive and anytime I go into a store, no matter what night of the week it is, it is close to empty.
