Yes, I truly think BB can pull itself out of its hole and debt.................close all your stores with the exception of 5-10. Become a small business in local areas and admit a business failure.

Good GOD............even Family Video has kicked their ass.

there are some real brains at work hear people lets close all are stores that will increase are sales. then people wonder why is america in a state of recess.

that puts 4800 people out of jobs in the worse time possible, about 5% of those 4800 people will get new jobs the rest will try but to no success.

I think they need to sink all their money in SD chips! Why they think they will be more profitable than disks that only have 2 flavors and that everyone uses is beyond me.

I will actually hate to see them go. I use Red Box for new releases but BB for oldies when my backup is not usable. I guess I will need to go back to NFs. I have had too many terrible experiances with them.
