Re:Blockbuster CEO 'Confused by Fascination' With Netflix by mechanical_fish on Tuesday August 19, 2008 @03:51PM (#280741)
No leases on brick-and-mortar stores.

No retail employees.

A first-mover advantage in the online space.

No history of charging late fees. This is a really important point - in my mind, the name Blockbuster evokes the image of a scolding librarian who sells used cars on the side.

And, of course, Netflix also has a different CEO.
