So much white supremacy on their home page

They should be canceled

Wow. Didn’t realize it was that long ago.

I remember making the decision to pay more for the additional streaming option, or just sticking with the normal mail-order DVDs.

We used to have the 3 DVD plan. Meaning they would mail us 3 DVDs which we chose from their website.

If you mailed them back on Monday you would have 3 new DVDs on Friday.

It replaced Blockbuster for us.

I will admit that I never thought their business model would succeed. I expected Netflix to fail.

I also expected:
1. build a bear
2. Amazon

To both fail.

Anyone need any money tips on new companies that I think are bad and you should invest in?

I lived within one day of a distribution center. Netflix dvd was the best back around 2007.

Out of Sight, Rushmore, Enemy of the State, etc. were all released over 25 years ago?

Damn, I’m getting old.
