Circuit City may have gone a different route, but it couldn't find a buyer. It's been getting creamed by Wal-Mart (cheapter prices) and Best Buy (better service). The recession may have killed it off, but I don't think even it good times it was doing very well.

Yes. Get those flatscreens, computer accessories, cameras and video games for a cheap liquidation price while you're at it.

I was more or less forced to use an online mail delivery service if I wanted my rentals. Sure it's convenient, but without a physical store I'm unable to rent games either now unless I open up an account with an all games online rental service which I might not even use enough to justify it. Groan.
I kind of wish Nintendo was, but that's really just me being bitter over feeling swindled by them.
The world would arguably be better off if Microsoft at least was forced to massively downsize because of a recession. That one is not me being bitter. More along the lines of my thoughts that things would be better in a lot of ways if Microsoft didn't have a stranglehold on a lot of things.

I thought that CVS acquired Eckerd. That's what replaced our Eckerd's in Tallahassee. I guess Rite Aid sold those stores to CVS instead.
I like Six Flags over Georgia (the only one that I've been to). I wouldn't miss it tons if it closed down since I haven't been there in years. (I haven't been to Disney in years either.) But it's nice to have alternatives to Disney and places that aren't in southern California or the central Florida.
Sbarro? Meh. I could care less if they go down. Whenever I've gotten their pizza, it tastes like it was cooked hours ago.
Blockbuster? Count me among the surprised that it's lasted as long as it has. I'm not quite sure why it hasn't managed to switch over to being on online retailer, but I suspect that it's the sheer number of brick-and-mortar stores that they have is weighing them down.
