It's over 400 percent!!! That means that for every $1 in equity that Blockbuster has, it owes $4! No capital can save you from that. Blockbuster is such a copycat as well. Putting up a bunch of Redbox kiosks and painting them blue and sticking a Blockbuster logo on it isn't going to help either. Its online service and in-store selection are lost causes. Putting more money into them rather than paying off that outstanding debt is a sure way for Blockbuster to go the way of Circuit City even quicker.

I bet BB doesn't have that restriction just because they are the studios biggest rental customer. Not fair by any means. BB messed up the DirecTV rental scene and now is going to mess up the kiosk business as well! Yeah,y question exactly. I bet BB doesn’t have that restriction
