Blockbuster Closes, Reopens for Liquidation

This is quite a change, having lived through the era of readily available physical video media stores. Now Blockbuster video, once ubquitous, is closing its remaining 200 stores.  Its Mail order DVD business, introduced as a competitor to Netflix, will also be shut down by mid December. This media is still available, like non digital film, at Amazon and elsewhere, but expect it to fade away.  Another dependence on fast Internet connections.
