No apology needed. I bumped it because it deserved to be heard again. KAB is just old and curmudgeony, while I'm starting to get there.I do apologize to the thread for the long 'rant'...discovering the news just felt like a gut punch and wanted to unload a bit.
Anyone care to school me on the Roku 'perk' concept if BB goes away? And any idea if an net Set-top/App ecosystem is truly in the cards for Dish...I'd gladly keep giving my money to Ergen if so, it's just becoming my family's preferred way of getting content thanks to Xbox/PS3. Links are good too...
Danke,

BB is not going away. It may be reduced, perhaps only to Dish customers.
Good grief I hope that doesn't happen. I seriously doubt that the B&M Blockbusters can stay open with only a few Dish customers dropping by and paying nothing. I think their regular rental customers are what's keeping the remaining stores open.
When I've gone into my local BB store in Annandale, VA, it has a good number of customers, and somewhere between 2 and 4 service reps visible at a time. I am the sole customer with the blue DVD mailer.
I haven't found a use for the disc by mail .. I have a B&M store about a mile down the road and from what I can tell, they still get pretty good traffic in and out. I feel pretty foolish for not dropping in to swap a disc, however, I've had War Horse on my TV stand for three months now and I still haven't found the time to watch it.

Yup; Little River Turnpike behind the KFC/Taco Bell.
We have a lot of combined ops here. KFC on one side of the bldg, TB on the other. Shared drivethru.
