>Family Video closes Worthington store, leaving few others in central Ohio
>One of central Ohio’s largest remaining video stores has closed, leaving a dwindling number of video rental businesses in the Columbus area. Family Video, at 5540 N. High St. just south of Worthington, closed this past weekend...
>The Illinois-based chain bills itself as the nation’s largest video rental chain. It operates about 500 stores nationally, down from about 700 a year ago.
>Family Video emerged as the largest video store operator in central Ohio and elsewhere after Blockbuster announced in late 2013 that it was closing 300 stores, including its three central Ohio stores... According to some estimates, about 2,000 video stores remain in the U.S., less than 10 percent of the peak.
It isn’t Trump. It’s digital media and streaming. It’s happening here to and it makes me very sad :(
Josiah Williams
As if many people use rental stores anyway. Look at blockbuster as the perfect example.
Luke Jones
Your brain is collapsing under Trump
Jackson Butler
I'm surprised it's taking this long desu. Over here all the video stores have already closed down over the last few years. Everyone just finds their movies and shows online.
I don´t really think you can blame Trump for this.
Aiden Peterson
Damn, you are dumb. Nobody rents videos because you can do the same thing without ever leaving your house. The world is changing, boomer, long before you knew who trump was.
Jackson Murphy
It’s a joke/slide thread. Videos stores all closed years ago here as well. I think there is one final Blockbuster in Bend, OR. Truly the Last of the Mohicans.

>donald trump will bring back jobs >WhErE a re the PaPeRboys
Ffs he cant bring back dinosaurs either. Right now the video screen is
1. Free
2. Free with ads
3. Free with weird resolution (YouTube bootlegs)
4. Small fee (youtube)
5. Monthly fee ( netflix)
5. Small fee with delivery (ebay)
6. Fucking driving to a physical store and buying it (costing more then any other in both time and cost) - video rental

This is perhaps the most retarded shill post I have ever seen and I am voting for Zion don again because of it
It's a shame that most of these stores don't adopt the gamefly business motto. Except they would be close by. The concept of wanting to rent a vidya game for a day or 2 is too long. Red boxes usually offers. But we need faster methods! Someone out there create a store that takes away from Netflix, Hulu, Gamefly and many others. It will be a revival of the rental game stores/movies. Just need them to be innovated.

Fuckin’ A right dude. It’s also Trump’s fault that I can’t get: >betamax tapes >analog cell phones >regular gas >a car with a carburetor to put it in >an 8-track player >a big mac in a styrofoam box >a new set of jarts >and a new fucking buggy whip
>2019 >video rental Fuckin what. Your media is really scrapping the barrel looking for anything to blame Trump for huh. I don't even like the neocon zionist but come on.

Messicans are unironically keeping the video rental business afloat around me. There are vid stores next to the messican mart. one is even call 'American Video Rental'
Brayden Hill
Most people agree that it is more comfy to browse through a physical video rental store than to "rent online," for a lot of reasons. Many films at physical rental locations are rented "by accident," after you encounter them while looking for something else. Sometimes they have nothing to do with what you were looking for, but seem interesting.
That kind of comfy video browsing experience is being lost in the age of Trump.
I agree with you here. I miss going to the video store with the girlfriend and just walking around reading the backs of the covers and whatnot. I also got excited to see some of the movies which is something that hardly ever happens anymore. I think it's because a little effort goes a long way in getting your hype up.
Jaxon Long
Jesus christ we stopped having video stores in the mid noughties

>Own video rental store >Make GED a minimum requirement >Never have to worry about retarded walmartfag ever working at my comfy video rental store
These idiots better start a streaming site or diversified before it's too late it's only a matter of time before they will be dead.
Brandon Williams
Who the fuck still rents actual hard copies of movies in 2019. Jesus fucking Christ
Owen Evans
Didn't know they were still around
Jordan Foster
People who don't want to use jewish streaming services that curate the content available to you. People who remember movies that you aren't going to find on netflix, because they are problematic. People who remember movies that you aren't going to find on Amazon, because they are problematic.
William Sanders
And there's still 20 serious replies. Trump cult is so desperate to get a win that they are taking the most obvious bait. I hope these idiots are boomers but I suspect it's just t_d being retarded.
Samuel Diaz
I miss this. basing my reason to rent and my whole view of a movie off the awesome cover only to get home and watch to be massively dissapointed
Alexander Ortiz
Movies are all fucking garbage. The handful of movies that aren't garbage I already own on bluray. Hollywood can suck a gnarled aids infested big black cock and fucking die for all I care. Don't even give 2 shits. Not even 1 shit. Stop being consumerist faggots mindlessly renting movies.
Joseph Sullivan
Movie studios created an entire market of near names for this reason. They would produce micro-budget movies with titles similar to a popular movie, with a similarly designed cover, just for people like you.
Jace Smith
>own on bluray. what a cuck
Aiden Myers
>searching for content jews censored is mindless consumerism quality post, kike.
Austin Taylor
Still absolutely required
Gavin Brown
>>Movies are all fucking garbage. The handful of movies that aren't garbage I already own on bluray Fucking this. That or straight up piracy. Pirate and download all music too because a lot of it's so old it's not even sold anywhere or I don't want to (((stream))) like a cuck. Books are about the only thing I'll probably never go digital for.

Tyler Gomez
Occasionally you would get one of these low budgets that was actually good
Wyatt Clark
Family Video was the exception for a long while when it came to video rental stores shutting down. I liked their business, pretty cheap rentals. But really, it's their own fault for not figuring a new model before the cash ran out. After Blockbuster closed down they had a near monopoly in my area, they could've easily used that opportunity to invest in new options. But they didn't.
Ryan Ramirez
>implying jews aren't directly responsible for 99.9% of the content
>America's video rental industry is collapsing under Trump SJW tactics again of and claim its failure is due to Trump.
Ayden Perry
So watch in 1080 or 1440
Camden Jenkins
Why doesnt Trump kill amazon video for being a monopoly?
Adrian Cruz
Cause it isnt a monopoly
