The Contrast Between Blockbuster and Netflix

I wonder if Blockbuster is too beholden-to/cozy-with/... other words here> the MPAA and the content producers to see the trouble they are heading for. Netflix is to SONY Pictures as Apple is to EMI Music: the asteroid of disintermediation looms and is threatening change for narrow minded producer's and middlemen's business models. We'll see who the dinosaurs and mammals are as their cozy ecosystem rings from the impact.
