There are 48.5 million Wii's out there, and Blockbuster may be positioning itself to deliver video on demand to them thanks to a newly-announced partnership with Sonic Solutions. Filed under: Business, Fun, Internet, Video
In an effort to stay ahead of the movies online business and directly compete with the likes of Apple, Amazon, Walk-Mart and Netflix, Blockbuster has announced that they have purchased Movielink.Filed under: Video, Web services

Because digital media downloads are skyrocketing, old-skool Blockbuster is merging with music store "Sounds," at least in New Zealand to provide more media than just videos. Is this just the next logical step, or is it because the Internet has opened up a big can of digital whoop-ass on Blockbuster? Blockbuster has been struggling for a while since the likes of Netflix (to which I subscribe) have come to the playground. Blockbuster, Hollywood, and other video stores are clinging to a dying business model in my not-so-humble opinion. Who wants to go get their entertainment anymore? What fun is that?

If no one is visiting your stores, why would you put in more hardware to sell things to people who will rent online anyway? I predict that unless Blockbuster stops holding on to old ideas and embraces the digital revolution (the Internet, not kiosks in store), it will be a downhill slide to obscurity for them.

That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
