Blockbuster at Home DVD/Game by mail no more.

Just got this email from Dish. I've been out of the loop for awhile so is this already known?

Can you still get dvd's and games at the brick and mortar stores?

Old News about Blockbuster ending. Good news about receiving 1 pay per view/month for 3 months.

Had a list of games grandson picked out,Dish never shipped any. I guess I just add this to the never ending list of things(Hopper,Roku,Ipad just to name a few) that was either taken away or I cannot take advantage of. As for PPV certs, big deal,I usually have already bought the movie so the certs expire. Its now time for me to really examine if me paying Dish $175 per month is in my best interest. The last time I watched anything on Dish was 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately my wife watches a couple of channels that are not on the low end packages. So my choice is either all or nothing.
