More and more people are choosing not to make the trek to the video store to rent a movie. Many people choose to order movies instantly using Net Flix or ordering pay per view movies via satellite receiver or cable box. There are more and more devices that this is possible on for example now after getting a Netflix disc for the Wii you can order Netflix movies any time using a Wii tha is connected to the internet. Netflix is also available on play station 3, soon the XBOX 360, IPod touch, IPhone, on new HD TVs that can connect to the internet and on the computer. The popularity of pay-view movies and instantly being able to watch movies hasn't been good for video stores now many are going out of business. Now with some services such as renting movies from apple you can watch the movie for up to 48 hours or with a Netflix account, which is slightly more than renting a movie, you can rent movies as much as you want. With pay-per-view you also don't have to worry about late fees or there not being any copies of the video being available. There are also more options than a video store for many pay-per-view and other services. The world is coming more and more instantaneous with pay-per-view and Netflix and other services video stores are going to have to lower their prices and have more specials and deals to compete.
