It wasn't Netflix's streaming that killed Blockbuster, it was their DVD by mail service. Streaming was another nail in the coffin, but Netflix was already stealing Blockbuster customers with DVD's by mail subscriptions -- a much more convenient (and no late fees) way to rent movies. My last Blockbuster rental was the time I forgot to return a Blockbuster movie before vacation, by the time I returned, the late fees were more than the price of the movie ($30 or $40 iirc). I never went back.
