I've missed my local video store everyday since it closed in 2009. Huge piece of my childhood, gone. I really hope video stores / VHS makes a comeback like record stores / vinyl did.

There are so many competing streaming services now that it's MORE expensive to pay for all streaming services compared to just renting a physical movie. We've come full circle now.

When Blockbuster and Family Video closed, I bought sooooo many $3 movies over the course of those ten years that I can't imagine watching all of them. I'd also bought lots of $1.99 pre-owned movies from Blockbuster when they first started selling those in the early 00s, so between that and my local used music & movie store, I say with absolute certainty that I'll never run out of movies and TV shows to watch on DVD. I mean, I would if I didn't ever leave my house, sleep, or eat, but since I do all of those things, travel a lot for work, and have a pretty active social life, it's highly improbable.

By the time 6G cellular/internet rolls out. Downloading a 4k Blu-Ray is literally instant. Less than 30-40 seconds. They could just put cardboard on the shelves, with descriptions. Bring it to the front desk. Then, get your download in 30 seconds on USB drive/SD card.

If a video store had an option to sign up for some sort of membership when you can rent and watch a rented movie in a backroom with a limit or schedule I think people would do it because they want to find a place for that. Often in your house doesnt have a place for that maybe a few people but not everyone.

I’m sad that Netflix is discontinuing its DVD-by-mail service after all these years. I live in a rural area where streaming isn’t practical, so I hope I can find a new service to rent or borrow discs.

yeah, it's actually a pretty good movie, I didn't know about it prior to making the movie and not sure if you picked up on it, but I think Steve was trying to pander to us a little by diminishing how much he liked it, but this video store was right in the heart of the Gayborhood and afterwards steve revealed that he loves the movie.
