Blockbuster

As I was driving home the other day, I noticed a big sign "STORE CLOSING - UP TO 60% OFF." I thought it was another small store, and didn't think much of it. Until I looked and realized, this wasn't just a small store closing, it was blockbuster. I've seen several around the area closing their doors, and I started wondering how many other types of stores are going to start closing in the future? Blockbuster used to be the automatic place you go to rent a movie. But now you have options! Do I want to use netflix, redbox, or blockbuster? Blockbuster isn't even necessary anymore because you can just order movies straight to your TV, your computer, or just pay$1 at the redbox. So, through technology, what else is going to start disappearing from our lives? Will grocery stores start closing because all groceries can be immediately delivered or sent straight to your refrigerator? Will pharmacies close because medicines can be vended with the right identification provided? Will movie theaters start closing because new releases can just be purchased from your home? It has been a big trend in America that stores were popping up everywhere, shopping centers being developed, and almost no land was left uncovered. Maybe one day, stores will come down because technology will make them unnecessary things of the past. Maybe slowly the land will start looking like it did hundreds of years ago, empty. But then again, it might be covered with robots...
