They're still in Australia. Probably because Netflix hates Australians.

The end of an era...technology overtook them (internet access to music and film).

Blockbuster what a choice of films that is to say 20 films.
 Do have Star Wars in? Yes sir, your lucky we're down to our last 70 copies. Man that was close...I've rent one, do you have vertigo? No I don't suffer from that..

Who needs a brick and mortar video store when we have a Red Box in practically every other store?
Even Blockbuster jumped on that bandwagon. A little late but they're dragging along on the tailboard.

I remember Block Buster opening up their first stores. It was all the rage. Especially in my hood. No cable yet. Then there was the Betamax or VHS wars. VHS winning out in the end. But, yeah, I remember jumping in my mom's Buick to go score a new release.

  Either way, Tape recording has too many problems inherent to magnetic media. We learned that from the eight tracks. Disc storage media has all but wiped out magnetic tape.  Good riddance I say.
