Ironically there was an offer for Blockbuster to acquire netflix at one point... Boy. I bet they wish they did make that purchase.



Well to be fair, Netflix offered to work with blockbuster to make the mail rental dvd's more popular and possible get aquired by Blockbuster.  The ceo of blockbuster laughed and in fact was right, because the next year other companies like Walmart also started with mail renting dvd's and netflix was losing +20 million a year, in fact everyone was and stopped with the service, Netflix is just one of those companies that should have gone bankrupt but investors kept it alive and later on the streaming service started.
