The in force news is that Blockbuster has decide not to bring up Price for its existing customers . Our tipster was understandably relieved to see that his plan wo n’t be bear upon by these changes . The tout ’s two - DVDs - at - a - meter inexhaustible programme ( as long as exchanges are made in the store ) runs $ 14.99 a month , but he ’s telling us Blockbuster will be file $ 21.99 for that same inexhaustible plan for newfangled endorser after August 31 .

Blockbuster decide to make those variety a few weeks ago — we know about itscrippling of its unlimited plansback on July 27 . That was foresighted before Blockbuster hear about that Netflix price cut harbinger yesterday , which some commenters here on the Giz told us was not applicable for reader live on the East and West Coasts . But then we heard that a Netflix call center employee got a memo allege that the Netflix price lessening on its “ three discs at a time ” planaffects 6.7 million customers . Sounds like a majority .

It ’s great that existing Blockbuster customers wo n’t see a price step-up unless they interchange programme . But amount on , Blockbuster , you could do good than that . It ’s your move . Netflix has a three - movies - through - the - mail price of $ 15.99 , and your monetary value for that same program is $ 16.99 . have ’s see a corresponding cost cut for 6.5 million of your customers .
