Blockbuster Online DVD Rental

Company History

RATING: 5/5 Stars

Blockbuster Inc. is one of the most important a leaders in the DVD rental sector. Blockbusters covers almost a third part of the U.S. market share, and manages more than 6,500 video stores, with 90 million customers in the United States. Few years ago Blockbuster spreaded its business all over the world but the movie piracy in some countries made Blockbuster to center again its business only over the United States. Founded in the mid '80s as an alternative to small, local operations with limited video rental selection, the company grew quickly into a nationwide chain, with other interests in the entertainment industry as well, including music retailing.

At the present time Blockbuster has spread out its business beyond the physical stores towards the online market to face up the new competition in the online movie rental business. With a consolidated business career Blockbuster is one of the most solid leaders in the market, with the best promotional offers and the most competitive rental plan prices.
