Blockbuster City!

The last quote is priceless:

“Our view of the change that’s occurring in consumer electronics and the movie-rental business is one of convergence,” Mr. Keyes said. He sees Apple Inc.’s stores as an example of “a user-friendly one-stop shop with solutions for the consumers” that could be a model for Blockbuster-Circuit City combination.

Yeah, Apple stores! There’s the future of the big box and corner store synergy! Do it like Apple does! With lower-paid employees…and technology they don’t own…and a horrible balance sheet…but other than that, looking good!
