<<Are you sure they have the cash flow to support this? Remember, BBI's Free Cash Flow is only $40m. The real question which will be answered in the future is how badly BBI will be slitting their own throat to enter the on-line video rental market.>>

Dave, you again show that you have no clue.

Blockbuster's stores generate $1 Billion in cash flow annually. Blockbuster the company is a combination of Blockbuster stores and Blockbuster online.

During the past year, Blockbuster has spent hundreds of millions launching and marketing its online site, building out distribution centers, and stocking online libraries. These large up-front costs will likely not recur indefinitely.

Do you have any additional dumb comments to make, like how "indie" films represent a significant and sustainable competitive advantage that will save Netflix?
