Sunrise, Sunset. A Blockbuster bites it.

A brick and mortar Blockbuster Video store permanently closed down shop in Westwood California. Not big news in and of itself, but I think this indicates something larger, the extinction of physical video stores. On Demand and downloading will finish the job that Netflix started. Might seem sad at first, but remember, the concept of a video store is only a few decades old anyway, and like all technology, nothing lasts forever.

Swing low, sweet chariot, comin for to carry Blockbuster Video home.
