Hollywood Video Closing?

Got word from a reader that they stopped by Hollywood Video at the Giant Shopping Center and it was closed with a Sheriff’s sale sign in the window.

Apparently it is closed for good.

If anyone has any additional information, let me know.

Now that this is closed and Blockbuster at the Walmart on 248, seems we are out of video stores.  Guess it is Netflix and Redbox for those who like to rent.

or digital downloads, or video-on-demand, etc.
The chain video rental places dug their own graves by not embracing technology.

Yes ive got to get into digital downloads PB..thinking about a blue ray that has internet access.. I think that works with Netflix...? I dumped RCN last week for DirectTv, but dont have phone in the house anymore(went all cell)...so i cant order easily on demand(i think) need to get my digital movie life in order for the winter!!

FYI, As a Powerplay member at Hollywood Video I was very upset to see this store close without warning. I spoke to the corporate office who assured me that my account would no longer be assessed the monthly fee. Also, if I go to another Hollywood Video store they will give you one month of power play for free.

I informed the corporate office that I had movies in my home that needed to be returned, they are sending me a label to mail them to the corporate office.
