Chips_B_MalroyHollywood Video is the number 3 video rental in the USA.  Or was.  What I have been trying to show in the past, is MS creating another monopoly to make money and push Silverlight on us.  By using the two largest Video rental services:  Netflix and Blockbuster.  The money trail with Netflix.  Icahn as a possilbe unspoken proxy in Blockbuster takeover.Apr 26 21:50
