Hopefully the one close to my house won't close. I love been able to walk in and grab a movie with the monthly pass.

Maybe its because their Blus are way too overpriced.

Not surprised at all over this news. They have lost my business a long time ago. Seems everytime I rented a game/movie from them, they try to push extra services on me every time. I always said "no thanks". But they wouldn't let it go. They demanded to know why I didn't want them and that I'm dumb if I don't go for it. Literally laughing in my face.

RIP
