Can't you do other things with dvd like store information and pictures and stuff.? Dvd aren't just used for copying movies so your calculation is a little off.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it

But as in the case of my friend who received a copy instead of the original movie, wouldn't BB wonder where their movie was, and then charge the person for the movie :~)

Anyone who returns a copy instead of the movie is shoplifting and/or just plain stupid either way they should be taken away and not be allowed to use a computer.

you could walk into blockbusters and tell them that you want to rent a dvd to bring home and copy, as long as you pay your rental fee they wont give a shit they will still rent you the movie.

Yeah most of the people at blockbuster dont know there is a blockbuster.com online version or even that computers can play movies. I consider blockbuster employees like fast food workers. Just one paycheck from bringing in their ak-47 and shooting everyone in the store. Ok thats just me.
