A Blockbuster closing in Chesterfield Virginia: It may say "this location only" but many others in the area have gone down, too, completely unable to deal with Netflix, Redbox and the online world of downloads. This is a repeat of how Blockbuster started, except in reverse: It was the main chain that spread across America in the 1980s and 90s, obliterating the thousands of "mom and pop" video tape stores that once existed.
