Before streaming changed everything, one logo ruled the American weekend: Blockbuster Video. With its bright aisles and endless rows of tapes, Blockbuster turned movie renting into a national ritual — and quietly crushed thousands of local video shops in the process. By the 1990s, it had over 9,000 stores worldwide, renting 100 million tapes a week.
But when Netflix came knocking with a new digital model, Blockbuster laughed — and sealed its fate.
