Ghozer Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 i'm surprised Blockbuster hasn't gone sooner tbh, what with all the digital downloads, online streaming, and consoles moving over to streamed/digital content also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strix Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Blockbuster stock porn?! :-0 What put the top hat on it was their 'Starlight' charity stuff The Starlight thing appeared around the same time as the porn. Kids charities and porn don't make good bedfellows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chem1st Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Merry Xmas from landlords eh. Quarter rent day seems to have pushed quite a few companies over the edge. Fear not though, the government is forcing housing rents to rise. GDP will go up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geared Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 To be fair it's the fault of the company directors. HMV failed to move into digital downloads, they let Apple steal the market Blockbuster failed in the same place, Netflix and Lovefilm took the online segment. These were massive well established companies that were leaders in their field, and they let some complete newbies take the entire market from under their feet. How stupid can you get?
