Early 2000 years blockbuster (video rental franchise that had thousands of locations around the world) was affected by the appearance of other services to enjoy movies, so in 2010 the business had to close.

What is the story behind 'Blockbuster'?
Blockbuster Video is a company founded in 1985 by David Cook, who, with the help of his wife, found a form of business in movie rentals. To achieve this, Cook used his knowledge of databases.
The company's first headquarters was opened in Dallas (USA) in 1985 and within two years it already had more than 15 stores, which caused a stir among moviegoers.
Subsequently, the company opened establishments in Europe and also in Latin American countries such as Peru, Argentina, among others. Although, in places like Spain, they had to shut down earlier than expected as piracy in the country had started to seriously affect their profits.
Interestingly, it is said that in 2000 the owners of Blockbuster had the opportunity to buy Netflix, at that time the platform of Streaming was just beginning; however, shareholders of the video rental company believed that this service would not be profitable.
Although, as it is known, Netflix has become a boom since its launch and this has allowed its owners to get big profits.
