The End is Near For Blockbuster

Only a matter of time now for Blockbuster to be no more.  Like the grocery store video section Blockbuster will soon close its doors and fade away. Blockbuster fell victim of technology as in high speed Internet and available download for movies and Netflix.  They have served the market and now find themselves no longer needed.
