Blockbuster is offering a new promotion whereby “Netflix members can turn in the tear-off flaps from any red Netflix envelopes for free rentals at any Blockbuster store. The promotion is set to run through December 21.”
I’m inclined to agree with Nexflix’ spokesman: “The very reason for online DVD rental is that you don’t have to go to the store.” The only way this would be of interest to me (and, yes, we’re Netflix customers) would be if we had mailed back all our selections and we had nothing else to do over a weekend.
