DISHbuster

Bankrupt Blockbuster Bought By DISH Network

Excerpt:

DISH CEO Charlie Ergen hasn't laid out any specific plans yet, but he will presumably use the chain in at least a few ways.

First, the Blockbuster stores can serve as local sales and service outlets for the DISH service. Second, DISH subscribers might be able to rent Blockbuster's DVDs or stream movies online, allowing DISH to compete directly with Netflix--one of the companies that helped put Blockbuster out of business.

Comment: Kathee said, "What would Dish Network want with Blockbuster?!" I thought the comments were funny!
