There are like four or five video rental stores within five minutes of my house.

One of them is actually expanding and has been for a few years.

I haven't rented a movie in years, it's too costly and big pain the tuckus.

They still exist in Toronto. I've seen quite a few. Indie stores not major chains. No BlockBUSTAZ in the area though. I think Rogers still has video stores.

Used to hit those all the time. Same with the few arcades in the city where I grew up. It sucks that those kinds of places are like a novelty now.

There's one specialty video rental store in my area, but most corner stores rent DVDs and Bluray on the side. The area set aside in a couple of the stores is actually about the same size as some of the old mom and pop stores back in the day.

Never cared for Blockbuster since they basically drove the chain I went to out of the area.
